CORK ON SATURDAY: SHAMROCK predicts a good afternoon for trainer Dermot Weld at Cork including the feature race – the Noblesse Stakes.


Feature race at Cork this afternoon is the Listed Noblesse Stakes for fillies and it would be a huge surprise if it doesn’t go the way of the Dermot Weld trained Zhukova.

She has a stone in hand on the ratings and plenty of class too as she proved last season with four wins in a row (two Listed, followed by two Group 3’s).

She was found wanting when a well beaten seventh in the Group 1 Qipco British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes at Ascot but this is very much her level and on ground she likes it should be a case of her outclassing the field.

Aidan O’Brien runs Love Potion who has been off the track since making a winning debut at Dundalk in December 2015 so has both the absence and step up in grade to overcome.

Weld should also land the maiden on the card at 3.20 with Katouna who made a pleasing debut at Dundalk behind the odds-on Zinat and can land this prize.

Weld won this last year with Harzand who went on to classic glory at both Epsom and the Curragh.

SHAMROCK’S BETS:
NAP: Katouna (3.20 Cork)
NEXT BEST: Zhukova (2.45 Cork)
