At face value LANZEALOT probably has various questions to answer, not least his stamina reserves for a stiff 2m1f trip at Pontefract Park, although confidence can be drawn on that score from the fact that he's a half-brother to the 2m hurdle (2m2f Flat) winner Oxford Blu. He's raced keenly in the vast majority of his races, but it's distinctly possible that newly-applied cheekpieces will help him to settle better on this occasion. Hailing from the vastly experienced quarters of Sir Mark Prescott, the chances are that he'll be exploiting a workable mark of 63 sooner rather than later. A fairly obvious alternative is the €480,000 (yearling) Frankel filly Frankenstella.
