Verdict

The Tim Easterby camp have hit form with a vengeance of late and Ground Zero is fancied to maintain the run, with Queen Of Night, Coracle King and Wizard Of Mul expected to fight it out to chase the selection home. Ground Zero came out on top in a muddling race at Newcastle earlier in the month but could do nothing more than to win his race, and he did so with a little left up his sleeve. The Marju gelding can be followed whilst his confidence is on a high.
