FormscanBy Gary Carson - CATENA ZAPATA ran well on his return from an absence at Cork last month when staying on to chase home Helpmeout in Cork. The Vadamos gelding has gained his two wins at Dundalk but ran well in testing conditions last time and with in-form apprentice Wayne Hassett taking 7lb off now he looks nicely treated. Saltonstall is a couple of pounds lower than when winning this last year and has to be respected having run a couple of nice races recently. Aidan O'Brien runs two and the unexposed Subzero is an interesting one with Jack Cleary taking 7lb off.
