Race preview
LA ZOUBIDA was turned over at Sedgefield when giving away 12lb to a rival who subsequently performed with credit in handicap company. Although Roses All The Way finished ahead of her in a Listed contest at Haydock in December, her overall form is stronger and she appears capable of successfully conceding weight all round. Roses All The Way got off the mark at Musselburgh and has to be respected, while Society Soldier and point-to-point winner Queens Secret complete the shortlist.
