Zero To A Hundred, a son of Dubawi making a belated debut, cost $650,000 as a yearling but was picked up for less than £50,000 last year. His stable also run Miller's House, who has shown nothing in two starts. On official ratings ZABARDAST should have easily won at the first fixture and started odds-on but never got close over that extended 1m1f. He drops down in trip and gets another chance to show last season's Group 3 second wasn't a fluke. Antonio Vivaldi started out with John Gosden though never ran for the yard. His two UAE runs in January produced staying-on efforts over a mile on Turf so it's a surprise to see him over 7f. Far Sky showed enough in three starts here last winter to be a threat.
