Forecasts

Magical Zoe (1/4), Nucky Johnson (5/1), Telecon (6/1), Neptunes Staircase (6/1), Stariam (13/2), First Dare (25/1), Churchwarden (28/1), Nelson Muntz (40/1), Whispering Hopes (40/1), Hollies Choice (50/1)

Verdict

It's hard to look beyond MAGICAL ZOE, a smart hurdler who didn't shape at all badly on debut in this sphere in a listed race at Cork. Nucky Johnson is taken to follow the selection home, with both Stariam and Neptunes Staircase likely to be on the premises, too.

  1. MAGICAL ZOE (IRE)
  2. NUCKY JOHNSON (IRE)
  3. STARIAM (IRE)
