Verdict

REDZERO (9) sound return with a strong on-pace second to Lord Remlap over 5f at Scone in a decent rating contest. Has the upside to get off the mark. YAKAMOZ (11) resumes in a winnable race for the new yard. Faded quickly on debut when seventh over 7f at Kembla Grange last August. Fitted with the one trial placing over 5f. Lugging bit goes on and can overcome the sticky gate. ALL SAINTS (1) back in class and now in the Sharon Jeffries yard. Ran a tough second two-back, then dropped out quickly with a dismal seventh over 5f at Kembla Grange. Claim helps from the good gate and expected to figure prominently. DIRTY DANI (8) got too far back on debut with a battling eighth over 4 ½f at Newcastle. Can improve on that effort and sneak into the minor money.
