ZYON, one of a number of four-year-old's in division one of the bumper can make a winning debut for trainer Paul Nicholls. The selection is a half-brother to a couple of useful performers and is taken to get the better of previous winner Tidal Flow who was impressive in winning at Newbury in the autumn but has to concede weight to all of his rivals in this. Samarquand represents a stable who do well in bumpers (41/161 in recent years) and he can claim third on debut.
