Sauanna Belle looked a certain future winner when narrowly beaten over 6f at the Curragh but failed to stay 7f on her next start at Gowran when Lady Mandeville finished in front of her. ZEBED has been racing against better opposition and makes his handicap debut in this moderate contest. He has plenty of weight but looks the type to improve and can get off the mark. Easy Boy has had three starts over 7f and ran a shocker in the latest of them while Spirit Stone is another who has failed to stay when sent over that trip.
