Verdict

Zakharova ran in a Grade 2 in between victories at Musselburgh and Newcastle. She sets a decent standard, despite the penalty, while Our Promise is improving with experience but it would be no surprise if this went to a newcomer with KITTY HALL a likely sort. She’s a €33,000 daughter of Fame And Glory out of a bumper and hurdles winner and the choice of Brian Hughes ahead of stablemates Highland Gold and Headscarf Lil.
