Verdict
ZIEFHD proved pretty consistent last year and returned to action with another solid run when second at Lingfield. She looks up to winning off her current mark and is just preferred to Dance Company. The latter won her maiden in good style on the Polytrack last time and has every chance along with the returning pair Emmuska and Imelda Mayhem. Vivid Blue landed the odds at Southwell as she was entitled to do and it remains to be seen what's she's capable of winning in this company and the same can be said of another recent winner on the Fibresand in No Compromise.
