Verdict

ZABEEL CHAMPION had the form of his course and distance victory last month franked when the runner-up, Lydford, scored at Southwell on Tuesday. The latter’s trainer, Dan Skelton, runs Carlisle maiden winner Nurse Susan in this but she also carries a penalty. Party Island was 4-10 on the all-weather but has only won once on Turf so far. Hereford third Miltiades is preferred to Supasunrise of the remainder.
