Verdict

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.

  1. ZOFFANY'S DELIGHT (IRE)
  2. NOBLE SEAL (IRE)
  3. VERBAL FENCING (IRE)
