Following a promising debut campaign CARDINAL ZIN (3) was gelded during the close of season. Placed in two handicaps tackling this trip since resumption and sets the standard revisiting maiden company. SOLOMON COOP (9) improved on juvenile form when runner-up tackling 7f at Gowran last month. Not guaranteed to appreciate this longer trip but must be taken seriously. ARATAYVO (2) hasn’t been seen since finishing unplaced in a valuable sales race last September. Previous Naas second gives him every chance. RIDHAZ (8) indicated ability on his only outing last year and also warrants respect.
