SPIRIT OF ZEBEDEE has been in fine form since returning from a break in August, scoring at Catterick and Lingfield. He escapes a penalty for last week's success in an apprentices' contest and can go in again. Midnight Guest has won twice over the minimum on Polytrack recently and has changed stables while the lightly-raced Carpet Time gained his only victory to date over 5f here in March though had little to beat. Tadaany is only 3lb higher than when scoring at Hamilton in September while Indian Affair will be having his 125th start and is going for his tenth success. Roland Rocks made a successful racecourse debut in June of last year but hasn't won since.
