        Verdict

        ZABEEL TOWER holds few secrets from the handicapper but his last effort was so poor that it must have surprised many, especially as his trainer has his string in good form. On that basis, we may be able to secure a better price about the veteran than his actual racecourse form entitles. El Dececy does not always look the most willing but he went down in a protracted battle with Commando Scott inside the final furlong at Doncaster. A 3lb rise was expected though probably is harsh. Piccolo Express wins in his turn and was fifth in a race where the winner was able to steal a cheap lead. Two Turtle Doves steps up from six furlongs though has gone well for this rider in the past.
