    In depth

    Verdict

    Sean Og Coulston won this from a 9lb higher mark a year ago on soft ground but hasn't been in the best of form and pulled up over hurdles when last seen in March. STRAIT OF ZANZIBAR has a poor strike-rate for a horse who once looked very promising though he's invariably raced in much better company and his overall form entitles him to the vote. The three-year-old Bronte is in very good shape at present and was only caught in the dying strides at Fairyhouse so with just 1lb extra has to be a threat. Seanie has only won once but wasn't beaten far in a much better handicap at the Curragh last time and shouldn't be dismissed despite a big weight.
