Zero Cool is taken to oblige at the principal expense of Duchess Royale and Just Two Numbers. The selection won well in a maiden at the track and the form of that race was advertised by the second, who went on to take his maiden with considerable ease. Duchess Royale steps up in trip having ran over eight furlongs. The visor has been taken off this afternoon. Just Two Numbers is proven on the ground but is yet to convince over the trip. Oakley Heffert failed to land a touch at Sandown and appears difficult to win with. Gib can be expected to front-run and is in good heart following a second to Dustoori. Zero Cool looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to take his first handicap.
