TIMBER TWELVE did well to overcome a tricky draw at Kempton on his debut in September and could be up to defying a penalty with improvement on the cards. Fellow previous winner Starlight Time wasn't disgraced in a valuable sales race at Newmarket last month and remains open to improvement. Zarco needs plenty more but the step up to 1m could trigger a fair amount of improvement and he's fancied to fill the places.
