Verdict
Willie Mullins is persevering with the nine-year-old Zenon, last seen landing a 1m6f premier handicap at Killarney in August 2020 - he has an entry in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket. Roaring Gallagher made a winning debut here in August last year and, though disappointing this campaign, should find stepping up to this trip to his liking, a remark that also applies to Roscommon winner Mr King. STAR HARBOUR has been running in Racing League handicaps in the UK, scoring on good to soft at Chepstow last month. With his rider's 5lb claim a plus, he can get back on the winning trail. None of the remaining trio can be discounted in a tight-looking race.
