Zodiakos arrives in good form but all of his victories have come on slower surfaces. Placebo Effect was a bit disappointing last time at Beverley but is one who will enjoy today’s conditions. Tukhoom has only gone up 2lb for a narrow defeat at Doncaster but was behind DUBAI ACCLAIM at Newcastle in November. The latter has had his excuses since yet has slipped down the weights so a return to winning ways could be on the cards. How Bizarre is starting to look well treated and can also play a part but the returning Shamaheart may need the run.
