Zakouma holds the call with the wagering companies for the Andrew Ramsden (2800m) this Saturday at Flemington.

The Grahame Begg trained gelding had excuses last start but looks suited up in trip and the market has him as top seed at $4.

The Western Front is at $6.50 on the second line of betting, with Changingoftheguard at $8.50 alongside Newlook. Zarir is at $9.50 and has been solid in betting with Australian bookmaker sites.
