Verdict

ZAFAYAN's form figures over hurdles suggest there's something wrong with his attitude but that certainly isn't the case as he's just come up against strong opposition. He won on the Flat at Leopardstown in April before a fine run when third in the Chester Cup and can finally get off the mark over timber. Pashtunwali was the shock winner of a bumper here last month for which he is penalised while Annadiamond scored on the level at Cork earlier this month but didn't get far when reverting to hurdles at Tramore a few days later. Glance Of Doon has shown some potential over hurdles and could sneak into the frame.
