In depth

Verdict

Zuleta has been knocking on the door in similar events recently and can finally get her head in front at the expense of Fizzy Lady and Mister Completely. John O'Shea's filly does appear to be steadily improving and finished an excellent second behind Pepe at Catterick 10 days ago, that was over a mile and six furlongs, but she was leading at this trip so this distance shouldn't be a problem. Fizzy Lady has good form in this type of company, including a second behind Alafzar at Chepstow, she is capable of taking a hand in the finish. However Mister Completely could be the main threat to the selection having been successful on the all-weather at Lingfield, and finishing just ahead of Fizzy Lady at Kempton recently. In what is race where it may be best to keep the bets small, Zuleta is just given the vote.
