Verdict
ZOULU WARRIOR was never in contention after missing the break at Lingfield last time but his efforts prior to that, including over C&D the time before, would give him every chance of getting his head back in front. Others to note are Sioux Warrior, who should appreciate a drop back to 6f, and Buraback, who is of interest returning from a break.
Rogue Thunder has been hinting at a return to form and could go well at a price, but Zoulu Warrior and BLUEBELLS BOY look the pair to concentrate on. The last-named has been in fine form over 5f, but he's a winner at this trip and could make them all go if again ridden from the front. Zoulu Warrior wasn't seen to best effect last time but is on the same mark as when runner-up over C&D two starts back, so could easily win if back to that level.
