A very tough start for punters with many in with chances. We will give a tentative vote to Zazous, Orchestration and Hollow Jo may be the main dangers. The selection landed a banded race back in November and hasn't done too badly since. He wasn't beaten far in handicap here recently and his last effort in a banded race shows he is holding his form well. He looks set to run a good race off his current mark Orchestration has to be a big threat having made it three wins in a row last time. He may now be in the grip of the handicapper but should still be involved in the finish. Hollow Jo also comes here in winning form having just got up to beat Humility over the seven furlong trip here. There may be more to come and he could reward each-way support. Cayman Breeze may do best of the rest, but for the winner we return to Zazous.
