Verdict
The fast-improving ZAMPARELLI can defy a further 7lb rise and an absence to complete the hat-trick as long as the ground doesn’t get any softer. Dr Robin is 3lb lower than when last successful and was only beaten a head over hurdles earlier this month. Sartorial Elegance could figure if ready to roll on his first run since February while Market Road has plenty in his favour including ground and trip and the fact that he’s won around here in the past. West Wizard was a course and distance in 2016 off a 10lb higher mark and returned to form at Market Rasen three weeks ago so looks a threat to all.
