Canary Row likes testing ground but has been looking a few pounds high since landing a Killarney Listed contest in August. Zorion has only run twice, making a successful debut as a two-year-old and performing with credit in a Listed contest here a year ago. Not A Bad Oul Day has been expertly placed to win nine times and will love the conditions more than most while the lightly-raced Xenobia completed a double before finding Listed company too much for her at Ascot. KNOWING YOU completed a heavy-ground double last summer and only went up 3lb for her latest victory at Listowel so looks the one to be on as Casimiro will be having her first start for Ger Lyons.
