ZZORO was third at Newmarket last time and has since joined Charlie Hills. The race has worked out well with runner-up Culturati subsequently landing a double and he can open his account in this. Arize showed some improvement when placed over 7f here last week and is less exposed than Chelmsford third Threebagsue. Masqueraded, Mr Marchwood and Zoffany's Way are all likely improvers with the latter preferred stepping up to a more suitable trip.
