Miracle Garden pops up now and again and that was the case at Bath 12 days ago, though he has more on his plate here off a 5lb higher mark. ZUMURUD (NAP) has run well in all four starts so far this year and Rebecca Bastiman’s sprinter is back on a winning mark so gets the nod. The handicapper is showing Spring Romance some mercy and he could go well at a price while better was expected from Across The Sea at Carlisle last month. Militia might need this but has had wind surgery since last seen and he’s not without ability.
