Connections of CAPPACURRY ZAK will be hoping for plenty more rain at the Ulster track but if it does materialise it may pay to side with the eleven-year-old who won well last time out at Limerick and raced that day as though they may be a little bit more to come despite approaching the veteran stage of his career. Castafiore Park won over course and distance in November and although facing a much tougher ask at the weights should give a good account of herself. Pegase Amour has run well at this track in the past and may be suited to this step up in trip.
