We can forgive ZAMAN for not placing at Newmarket when advised each-way at 40/1 last month, as that was his reappearance on a British track and could now improve for the run at a track he’s proven at.
He chased home Expert Eye, second in yesterday’s Sussex Stakes, in a good race here as a juvenile so Goodwood holds no fears, and he may well be a fair bit better than a handicapper if at his best.
Top weight is a burden and the step up to 10 furlongs means he’s unexposed, and if he is a Group horse lurking in a handicap then, provided he stays the trip, 16/1 quotes might be a snip.
Well worth some each-way money.
0.75pts each-way Zaman @16/1, 13:50 Goodwood, Thursday (1,2,3, 1/4 with Bet365)
