FormscanBy Tom Weekes - ZENTA worryingly pulled up on her most recent start but is a Grade 1-winning juvenile hurdler. The selection scored at the top level at Aintree in April 2023, a month after her Triumph Hurdle-placing but has disappointed twice over fences. Her Ballinrobe defeat was underwhelming and while she jumped ok in a smart race at Cork in December, faded tamely although is much better than that showing. Paggane showed smart form on her chase debut in a Limerick Grade 2 over Christmas. She was comfortably held by smart prospect Bioluminescence then and would struggle to beat an on-song Zenta. Karia Des Blaises attained a Grade 3-placing on her chase debut and finished ahead of Iris Emery last month.
