Formscan - WONDERING WHY finished half-a-length second to the 2024 Derby runner-up Ambiente Friendly at Huntingdon last time out and that form reads well in the context of this maiden hurdle. Zamek struggled at Kempton latest but would have every chance on his previous course second, while it is also worth keeping a close eye on Cayman Dancer, Jamada and Unjeu Royal.
