Verdict

There are various levels of trust required to have faith in any of the contenders in this field. In comparison to most of these, LEGEND OF ZORRO is still quite lightly raced and the combination of a drop in the weights and the return to the forecast softer ground is firmly in his favour. A 146-day break may also prove to be a positive for this gelding who represents the father-daughter team of Jimmy and Bryony Frost. Old Harry Rocks surged back to form when coming agonisingly close on chase debut and should prove the main danger ahead of Auld Sod who looked booked for second place before falling last time. A reproduction of that effort would see him make the frame this time.
  1. Legend Of Zorro
