Verdict

MORNING SUN had a bit in hand when striking at the second time of asking for the Keith Dalgleish stable here 16 days ago and can make light of a 4 lb rise. Zarabanda shaped quite encouragingly in a competitive Hamilton handicap on her recent reappearance and is feared most ahead of Irish raider Theophilos.
