Verdict

ZACYNTHUS hasn't been seen since finishing third in a Listed race at Longchamp last July but it's unlikely he'll be lacking race fitness here and he has the potential to be a lot better than this grade. The danger may be Tariq Too, who won at Haydock last month and still looks to be on a decent mark. Masked Dance is chasing a hat-trick following wins at Catterick and Ayr, while Red Gulch has only found one too good over C&D on his last two starts and is sure to make another bold bid. Sandown runner-up First Cat may be best of the rest as Kingscroft has never won on turf and still looks to be in the handicapper's grip, despite an improved second at Chester last time.
