Verdict

Camlann won over the course and distance a year ago having already run twice on the Flat at the fixture and he's engaged in yesterday's 5.15 on the level. Morga, who is Listed class on the Flat, ran very well in this a year ago but was also down to run yesterday. ZANJABEEL finished 3l behind the former at Wexford but is better off at the weights and has won on the Flat and been narrowly denied over timber subsequently when conceding lumps of weight. He gets the nod as the four-year-old Monarch makes his handicap debut and this looks tough while Stormey, though on a hat-trick, faces better rivals from 10lb higher. Roachdale House battled on well at Sligo while Top Ofthe Ra won what looked a decent maiden at Ballinrobe and can go well. Tay Lane won a Tipperary maiden by 20l and moved to Willie Mullins where he started a short-priced favourite for a Sligo novices' event but could only finish third. Zafayan finished runner-up twice at this fixture a year ago and has been busy on the Flat though was well beaten here on Monday.
