Ziggy's Avenger (10/3), Paroda Diva (4/1), Deep Sleep (5/1), Popty Ping (6/1), Talking In Kode (7/1), Karakula Dancer (17/2), Cobalt Comet (9/1), What Fools Believe (11/1)

Verdict

ZIGGY'S AVENGER was gelded before his recent handicap debut and showed a lot more when third at Kempton. This looks a good opportunity for him to get off the mark at the expense of Paroda Diva, who showed improved form for new connections when winning at Haydock 12 days ago, and Karakula Dancer, who didn't get the clearest of runs behind the selection at Kempton.

  1. ZIGGY'S AVENGER
  2. PARODA DIVA (IRE)
  3. KARAKULA DANCER
