Formscan By Alan Magee - The Supreme Horse Racing Club has proved a resounding success over the last few years, and the syndicate have a real flag-bearer in the shape of ZUZKA. The daughter of Flemensfirth recorded her fifth victory of 2012 in a 2m4f Grade 3 mares event here over Christmas, a race that will forever go down in history as providing Patrick Mullins with a record tally of wins for an amateur rider in a calendar year. She scored in good style, with stablemate Glens Melody nearly seven lengths back in third, and was confirming the great progress of her previous third to Jezki in the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse. This intermediate trip should be ideal. Way Up In The Air scored a decisive win in a Punchestown maiden earlier this month despite pulling very hard and, if learning to settle, should get a share of the place money.
