MAJESTIC ZAFEEN hasn't raced since June, but her earlier form is good enough to land this and she can come out best on her return as she's likely to have improved during the interim. Compton Target hasn't looked like winning in better handicaps of late, so today's drop in class should see him finish closer and he makes more appeal than Big Time Charlie and Rooknrasbryripple. Moment In The Sun posted a better effort last time but will need to improve further if she's to figure and the remainder are hard to fancy.
