Verdict

Makzeem will certainly be winning good races this season. His yard are off to a good start and he will probably prove better than this. The question arises as to what his optimum trip will be but it is almost certainly going to be a stiffer mile than this as a minimum. There should be a good pace for this with Bold Prediction and COUNT MONTECRISTO in the lineup. The former has some solid AW form and the handicapper has given him a chance in this. COUNT MONTECRISTO was a surprise winner here in February. He has improved since to finish second to a subsequent winner and had that same rival behind in a hot handicap at Ripon when fading inside the final furlong. His style of running should make him tough to catch over this shorter trip.
  1. Count Montecristo

  3. Makzeem
