Rich Harry, placed in four of his five starts to date, is rated 71 and sets the standard though may be vulnerable again. Battle Of Omdurman was third over a longer trip at Bath in October but, having shown good early speed, YIPPEE was rallying when sixth at Newcastle. A full brother to Polytrack winner Zu Run and a half-brother to smart sprinter Nymphadora, the Zoustar colt will know more today. Big Zou only weakened close home when fourth at Chelmsford and is another likely improver but, like Andrew Balding’s newcomer See That Storm who is a half-brother to a 6f winner, he doesn’t have a great draw.
