ZWAYYAN showed a big improvement dropped back to today’s trip at Doncaster last time and the Haggas colt gets the nod. The trainer should have a rough line on the form given his Sky Kingdom won over a mile at Newmarket when Thundering Blue was fifth on his debut. The latter looks the main threat given the remaining trio have plenty of improving to do to get involved with African Trader preferred to Cytringan and Squire Hockey on his modest debut effort over 6f at Doncaster.
