FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - ZARAAHMANDO (4) must contend with an awful draw, but recent efforts suggest he is close to a win. If he can break well and get across, he is the pace angle, and his unchanged mark leaves him competitive, so he may be able to take this hot affair. Elusive Path demands respect on handicap debut after three placed maiden runs. Although he seemed stretched by a mile last time out, connections have persevered, and he looks fairly handicapped, with the three-year-old allowance also benefiting the Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Goal Exceeded may be in the handicapper's grip, but he's in great form and can complete the frame. Local runner Dream Legend is worth monitoring in the market, though a 14lb rise for his last success may halt his progress.
