Verdict

Quite a few to consider with preference for DESERT MASTER, who got back on track in a classified contest over C&D last week and now has a handy mark to exploit. Zoulu Warrior made her second handicap start a winning one at Chepstow and he's a big threat, along with Ganesha.

  1. DESERT MASTER
  2. ZOULU WARRIOR (IRE)
  3. GANESHA
