Forecasts

Zoffany's Delight (9/4), Noble Seal (11/4), No Patience (7/2), Verbal Fencing (6/1), Moonhall Girl (6/1), Shambara (13/2), Lisabetta (15/2), Tiger Mylk (17/2), Procellarum (10/1), Bell Ex One (12/1), Styledome (16/1), Tullypole Annie (22/1), Creative Mojo (33/1)

The combination of first-time cheekpieces and a front-running ride in the small-field had the desired effect for ZOFFANY'S DELIGHT to make a winning handicap debut at Sligo a fortnight ago. Promising apprentice Dylan McMonagle takes off a valuable 7-lb and he looks well capable of following up. Noble Seal, Verbal Fencing and Shambara head up the list of possible dangers.
