In depth
Verdict
Zouzanna is the likely favourite on the evidence of a head second at Kempton in November but her yard has yet to hit form. Alice Haynes has her team ticking along nicely and her ITHRA has shown promise on both starts, notably when runner-up on seasonal reappearance. She should come on again on this third outing and the extra furlong will likely suit. Sub Rosa also looks a leading player after coming home fourth at Newmarket on debut, despite things not really going her way, while Dalatara is an interesting newcomer.
