In depth
Verdict
Zamoyski ended last year with a double over hurdles including a course and distance success. He could go well but TRIGGER NICHOL has the more recent form with a second at Huntingdon and he's taken to go one better in a weak handicap with headgear fitted for the first time today. Great Tempo has placed off higher marks though needs to step up on recent poor efforts to figure while it's even harder to make a case for any of the remainder though Tarrona did manage to place off a higher mark last year.
