Verdict
ZAHEE came up against higher rated horses than these when third in a claimer at Dundalk. He should find this easier and may improve on his debut for John McConnell’s yard. Summer's Dream posted a much better at Roscommon looking for her second win in 26 starts but Odd Venture’s earlier success at Cork came over 1m2f and he’s been well beaten subsequently. Adapt To Dan won over track and trip last autumn but was a reserve at Listowel yesterday.
