Zarzyni

Selected at: 20/1

Zarzyni was a no-show for the majority of last season but is sliding down the handicap as a result. His last win came off a mark of 99 and he’s currently rated 3lb lower. Finishing fifth on seasonal debut at Musselburgh last time out, he should improve for the run and a return to the winners’ enclosure is long overdue.
