ZOZAN (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race so he is a leading contender. DR PERRY (4) was ridden quietly then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished 2.25 lengths away in fifth last time out over 5f at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Best figures should see him run well. THREETHIRTYTHREE (6) returns from a lay-off of nine weeks and did win when resuming last time in work over 1m1/4f at Monmouth Park (Dirt). Should be prominent. TOP RECRUIT (5) resumes from a lay-off of ten months and is having his first outing under new trainer Saffie A Joseph (Jnr). Finished sixth at this track (Dirt) over 6½f at the opening run last time in work.
