It’s been sometime since ZAPPER CASS last won on Turf but Mick Appleby’s charge can race off a much lower mark on this surface and was beaten less than a length at Yarmouth last time. He looks the one to side with given Pink Flamingo has done most of her winning over the minimum trip. The latter finished in front of both Secretfact and Secret Potion when fifth over 5f at Bath earlier while Union Rose finished runner-up at Bath in June but has disappointed since.

Pink Flamingo 6-1 (9-12) Prominent behind leaders, still close up when ridden over 2f out, kept on one pace, 4th of 12, 6 1/4l behind Devils Roc (9-3) at Bath 6f hcp fll (5) fm in Jul.

Secretfact 11-2 (9-9) Raced keenly, chased leaders, switched right over 1f out, beaten when looked to lose action entering final furlong, eased, 6th of 7, 11 1/2l behind Princely (9-3) at Bath 6f hcp (5) fm in Aug.
