Forecasts

Getareason (1/5), Zaofu (4/1), Novano (8/1), The Shunter (12/1), Triangle Rock (16/1), Premier D'troice (20/1), Day Day (25/1), Niamh's Oscar (33/1), Cusp Of Carabelli (40/1), Mrs Pops (50/1), Where Now (66/1), Make Me Merry (66/1), Tsarina Sophia (100/1), Graig Na Manach (100/1), Don Elias (100/1), Carrigaloe (125/1)

Verdict

ZAOFU has been beaten a head, ½L and a short-head on his last three starts and deserves a change of luck here for a yard that has a 17% win strike rate at this meeting in the last four years. The six-year-old is taken over likely warm order Getareason from the Willie Mullins yard who will look to build on his promising two starts since June. The Seamus Neville-trained Novano could fill third place ahead of a pretty ordinary bunch.
