    Race Analysis

    ZAMEK (6) was fourth at Kempton two starts ago before improving to fill third beaten 7L in a 2m maiden hurdle at Lingfield. Progressing steadily and looks hard to beat. CRACKLING FIRE (1) resumes after seventy four days. Finished sixth in a 2m5f maiden hurdle at Warwick when last seen. Lightly raced and expected to return stronger. THE G WIZARD (4) posted consecutive seconds at Musselburgh tackling 2m4f most recently defeated 2L. Consistent performer and is a leading contender again. STRIDE ON (3) returns from a three month break. Opened last campaign with a solid second attempting 2m here beaten 8L. Genuine top three chance if ready to advance in distance.
