In depth

Verdict

Dermot Weld has a tremendous record in this race so the presence of the newcomer Unreachable, a daughter of Giant's Causeway out of a Grade 3 winner in the USA, should be noted. However, WONDERFUL looks the obvious one to be on despite the fact that she's been a beaten favourite on her last three starts after an excellent debut at Dundalk in September. The daughter of Galileo out of a Listed winner needs a win to boost her paddock value and looks to have been found the right race to do so. Jumbo Prado stepped up from 7f to run her best race to date over this trip at Cork and looks best of the remainder.
