The market should reveal plenty but the vote goes to Richard Fahey’s well-related newcomer ZIGGY’S CONDOR. He can edge out the more experienced duo of Alfie Boy and Sleven who have both shown some fair form and look open to further progress. Kevin Ryan’s debutant Royal Zabeel is another who needs considering in an open-looking novice.
