The progressive MARGUB defied a penalty to land a double at Chemsford last month in good style. Marcus Tregoning’s colt should make another bold bid on his handicap debut and is preferred to Jawwaal. The latter shares ownership with the selection and drops in class today along with Galloway Hills while Bedouin's Story has been raised 8lb for winning a lower grade contest at Thirsk. Zalshah beat La Maquina when scoring at Ffos Las last month but hasn’t threatened subsequently.
