ZABEEL CHAMPION, a smart handicapper on the Flat, is worth another chance to prove himself on a good mark in this sphere returning from a break. Chti Balko has dropped to an attractive mark himself and is expected to bounce back from a below-par display at Wetherby when ridden too aggressively. Kannapolis made the most of a golden opportunity at Huntingdon but is still a fresh horse for the time of year and needs respecting, also.
