CANDICE BASS · CRAIG ZACKEY · 3yo Gelding

Returns from a two-month let-up after making a winning debut at this track, scoring by just under two lengths from African Wild Dog in MPLTE grade despite starting among the outsiders. That result gives him genuine upside, and the winning rider is back aboard. The 9st9lb impost is the obvious challenge at only his second start, but he has already shown enough at this venue to remain a live place hope.
