ZORAN has been underwhelming so far over hurdles, but much better can be expected now going handicapping at a low level after a breathing operation/11 months off judged on his Flat ability, so he receives the vote. Commander Miller is respected back in handicap company after getting off the mark in a Warwick maiden, while Professor Calculus can also have a say in proceedings if seeing out this longer trip.
