Zee Man looks on a potentially handy mark in the 1.10 at Wincanton today and worth an each-way wager at 20/1.
This David Dennis trained five-year-old had some fair form in bumpers, including when a four length third of 10 on debut at Hereford to Apres Le Deluge.
The winner has since finishhed runner-up in a handicap hurdle off 114 whilst the runner-up Topofthecotswolds – who finished just a head in front of the selection – has won three times since to be rated 142.
Although yet to trouble the judhe in seven starts over hurdles Zee Man didn’t run too badly when fifth of 13 to Southfield Stone at Taunton or last time out when keeping on from way off the lpace to finish a never nearer 18 length fifth of 15 to Battleofthesomme at Uttoxeter.
He has since been dropped another pound and having started life off in handicaps off 107 is now able to race of a reduced rating of 92.
It makes him look a player at the weights in this weak class 5 affair, especially judged on his aformentioned bumoper form which looks strong in relation to this.
Daily Sport recommended bet: 2pts each-way Zee Man (20/1 Ladbrokes – BOG)
