Race preview
GOLD ZABEEL remains a maiden after three starts for Mark Johnston, but the three-year-old is in excellent hands to progress and a mark of 75 might not prove beyond him. He finished well after a tardy start when third at Musselburgh last time, but didn't have any issues from the stalls at Redcar before that when second and could take some beating. Intrepid Italian's winning run was ended at Chelmsford last month but he wasn't disgraced there in third, while Charlemaine could prove best of the remainder.
