ZANOUSKA defied a five-month absence and stepping up markedly in trip to gain an impressive victory on Polytrack at Lingfield. She begins in handicaps on a lowly mark and should complete the double. Rose Kazan hasn't done much wrong in her three starts at Wolverhampton and has given the impression she'll be well suited by today's conditions while there's little between Ana Shababiya and Voice From Above on their 1-2 at Leicester in August. Magic Skyline has won twice over hurdles during the winter and with fitness guaranteed should get into the frame. Lady Artiste made a successful debut at Newcastle last April so fitness may not be a problem.
