Verdict

ZABALETASWANSONG isn't easy to fancy on his last couple of runs, but he's just about the pick on his best efforts, and the presence of Silvestre de Sousa in the saddle (ten wins from 20 rides for the stable in recent years) suggests he will bounce back to form now dropped to plating company. Episcia looks the main threat based on a solid run in better company at Brighton, although Scenery also needs respect with blinkers fitted for the first time.
