Verdict
Zealot defied a double a penalty when landing a hat-trick with another victory over track and trip. He’d beaten CHIEF’S WILL (NAP) with a bit to spare here before that but the latter re-opposes on 12lb better terms today and that should be enough to see Archie Watson’s charge turn the tables. Tropez Power also scored over course and distance last month with Imperial Command and Mercurius Power behind while Dingle debuts for a new yard on his reappearance having slid down the weights.
