Mordred had tumbled down the weights before finally winning a handicap at Lingfield but Agent Zigzag was still well beaten when third over track and trip. The progressive OLYMPIC CONQUEROR has won both outings here so far this year and it could pay to stick with James Fanshawe’s charge in his current form. Several return to action with Motivate Me and Big Daddy Kane less exposed than High Commissioner and the first-named preferred as she drops down in class.
