Mr Zippi³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: Sara Ender

4/1

Closely related to a winner and half-brother to 4 winners on Flat, including smart 7f/1m winner Prince Eiji. Impressive start when scoring at Southwell 30 days ago and worth a chance to follow up.

22/1

Related to a bumper winner but offered little at Sedgefield on debut.

Form: 6-

Six And Out^t1²³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: James Davies| T: D Weston

4/7

Showed a fair level of ability when runner-up in bumpers at Ludlow and Wincanton over 6 months apart. Off a further 7 months but clearly capable when fresh. Wears a first-time tongue tie. Sets the standard.

Form: 2/2-

Taghadoe³³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

4/1

Half-brother to 3 winners and, while he failed to feature on debut for Peter Flood a month, he might show more after a switch of stables.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Six And Out (4/7), Mr Zippi (4/1), Taghadoe (4/1), Quechua (20/1), Burrows Light (22/1)

MR ZIPPI is related to the smart (on the Flat) Prince Eiji and opened his account at the first time of asking at Southwell last month, so he's capable of maintaining his unbeaten record despite the penalty. Six And Out is an obvious danger, while Taghadoe should step up on his debut having joined a new stable.
