Verdict
ZIG ZAG GIRL is unpenalised for her facile victory in a seller here on Sunday when she looked well above that level. She was purchased for 16,000gns after the race and can start repaying some of the layout. Best Bid found things happening too quickly over the minimum at Catterick but stayed on once getting the hang of the job and looks best of the remainder with experience. Tim Easterby has his horses in good form and the £15,000 yearling Appointed should be speedy while Eva Gore is out of a 5f two-year-old winner.
