Zarzyni is at home in this grade but hasn’t won since making a winning debut back in 2019. OUT THE HAT is preferred bidding for a treble after winning at Haydock last time given Jedd O’Keeffe’s charge has more scope than the rest of these. Wentworth Falls finished ahead of Manigordo at Thirsk last month though neither threatened while Big Les ran below par at York having placed at Doncaster before that.
