      Verdict

      A debut winner at Yarmouth, ZOOLOGY never figured in the Group 1 Middle Park last time but the 2000 Guineas entry is obviously held in high regard and can defy a penalty. Elwasme also returns to action with a chance though Kodiman disappointed at Newcastle last time and a hood is applied. Themainprotagonist is a brother to Group 2 and Listed winners with Covey another newcomer to note.
