German Whip is penalised for a narrow-margin success over 7f at Kempton and Carcharias just held on to win by a neck at Chepstow a fortnight ago and is upped 3lb. It could be the turn of ZAMASTAR today as the latter went close to taking advantage of a slide down the weights when runner-up at Wolverhampton on his latest start and can race off the same mark here. Bahamian Boy has something to prove over today’s trip while Illusive Force scored over 7f at Wolverhampton in June but needs forgiving a poor effort on his latest start.
