Steve Gollings doesn’t have many runners nowadays but has three engaged here today. ZAMOYSKI has been a bit of a flag-bearer for the yard and made a winning reappearance at Southwell. Bryony Frost has been booked and a follow-up may be on the cards though there are several dangers. Gary Moore’s pair both have claims with Niall Houlihan taking a handy 8lb off the four-year-old Twenty Twenty. Bentons Lad could figure in a first-time visor and Black Buble is usually well supported. Cigarisi also warrants a mention but It's O Kay may have been over-rated with an opening mark of 117.
