    Race Analysis

    ZOOTER (7) underwhelmed when favourite for his handicap debut providing final start last campaign. Showed plenty enough beforehand however to make him of major interest among this company. Top selection. ASTROLOGICAL (3) finished 1. 75L from the winner in a recent course and distance novice. Hollie Doyle retains the mount. Obvious danger. CLOSE TO ME (1) failed to make an impression in a pair of jumpers flat races this spring. Switching to the flat and all-weather for the first time. Could take a hand in the finish. HELIOS PATH (5) didn't display much promise on debut in October. Cheekpieces go on. Potential for some improvement.
