Expert eyecatchers: interesting runners identified by Racing Post analysts
Racing Post analysts select an eyecatcher after every meeting and here we highlight a selection of Sunday runners who have been put up as horses to watch
Zaliapour
3.00 Wincanton
Was last of four but didn't shape badly
Zaliapour made his seasonal return at Carlisle last month and, despite finishing last, the 13-year-old showed signs of returning to form on his debut run for new trainer Arthur Whitehead. He was gelded over the winter and could run well at a big price.
Town Parks
3.10 Stratford
Rattled home to grab second over a trip far shorter than ideal
Kerry Lee's eight-year-old looked to have plenty left when staying on well to finish runner-up at Hereford last month. An extra three and a half furlongs could do the trick.
4.45 Dundalk
Looks as if she has dropped to a winnable mark
Hidden Spark is yet to win after eight attempts but a fifth last month suggests the three-year-old could be running off a workable mark.
The mount of Leigh Roche will sport a visor for the first time and an extra half a furlong could make the difference after she stayed on well last time.
