Verdict

HEATHEN had lost his way for Ed Dunlop but got firmly back on track when easily seeing off his eight rivals on debut for David O'Meara here 17 days ago. On that evidence, he is likely to take both this 6 lb higher mark and the rise in class in his stride. Educator has also joined a stable adept at getting the best out of recruits from rival yards and he will be a big threat if taking to this surface (went close on polytrack on sole previous all-weather start). Zealandia is best of the rest.
