Having finished runner-up behind a course-specialist at Southwell on his penultimate start, STAR ZINC shaped much better than the bare result over 1m here 11 days ago, pulling hard and having no cover on the flank. He's worth another chance to confirm his present mark workable and earns the vote back at 7f. The thriving Bobby Joe Leg heads up the dangers, with Abruzzo Mia and Alexander James others to note.
