Verdict

ZAHRANN looked better the further he went when impressively opening his at the second time of asking at Cork 4 weeks ago and, well worth his place at this higher level on that evidence, it would come as no surprise to see him firmly to the fore again. Acapulco Bay, Arouet and Rock of Cashel head up the dangers, in that order.
