Verdict
By fast ground sire Zafonic, Zyzania may not be at home on this slower surface, but this half-sister to the useful Dandoun, faces her easiest task to date and is one to keep an eye on. Karl Burke sets a poser by saddling two runners. Inchcoonan has been given a chance by the Handicapper and she will find this easier than when chasing home the likes of Prince Tulum and Del Mar Sunset around Wolverhampton, while stablemate Littlemissattitude (down to run yesterday at Wolverhampton) comes here in good form and providing yesterdays efforts haven't taken too much out of her, she should again go well. However, Yavari looked to put up a much improved display when bolting up over course and distance last week and it is no surprise Brian Meehan's filly turns out again quickly under a penalty, before being reassessed by the Handicapper. She gets the vote to continue her upward curve.
