Alan Swinbank runs two in this competitive handicap Zennerman and Give Her A Whirl and we will select the former, Five Wishes is another that warrants plenty of respect. The selection ran well off marks in the mid-seventies last season and looked to be on the way back to form last time out. He struggled a little bit in the closing stages on that soft ground and today's conditions will be more to his liking. Give Her A Whirl has obviously had training problems but it would be no surprise to see this one go close off this low mark of 55. Five Wishes is improving with each run this season and was just touched off by today¿s rival Zabeel Tower last time out. We fancy she will reverse that form today and look a danger to all. Wind shuffle is another to bear in mind despite top-weight, however Zennerman has now dropped to a very handy mark and looks the one to be on.
