RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Not much between a few of the class runners here, but ZENARIO (10) looks ready to break through for his first victory this campaign after three very good placings. Last time, he worked hard to find the front and never really got a breather, but kicked for home and was only grabbed late by the handy Perun and Kosimo. It’s hard to see him not going very close. The grey FRUGAL FARE (9) beat ZENARIO (10) over the line when a relegated third back on April 10 and ran out of room at a crucial stage last start when only beaten 3.3m to Zanda Man. He’s a handy horse and should be fighting out the finish. SERGEANT LOU (5) might be able to find the front here and could give a real sight if that was the case, while ODIN (8) is the other class runner of the field and just needs even luck to be right in this.
