    Verdict

    Another poor maiden can go to Zorn ahead of Shannon Arms, with Ice Dragon one to note in the market. This truly is low-grade stuff, but something has to win it and so we shall side with Zorn who gets a chance to go one better than when second to Certifiable in claiming company at Wolverhampton last time. He seemed to appreciate helping to force the pace that day and similar tactics here may bear fruit. Shannon Arms has had an alarming tendency to fine done too good on each of his last four outings, but his experience abroad and in Ireland will stand him in good stead, in this company at least. The rest are hardly worth a mention, but Ice Dragon come from a decent yard and has some track knowledge. Another event that is best not dwelt on for too ong and one in which Zorn is the pick.
