Handicapper smiling following the successes of Big Zeb and Tranquil Sea

THE handicapper had to allow himself a little smile of satisfaction, following two races of late.

One of them was the Grade 2 Fortria Chase at Navan last Sunday, won by Big Zeb.

The handicapper’s ratings revealed that Big Zeb was, essentially, a certainty, but some of us were just too smart to listen.
