In depth

Verdict

Syrena has become extremely disappointing and was well beaten over a mile at Cork on Saturday. This is a poor contest but she's at nowhere near the level of last season and CAREFULLY may be capable of improving past her. Aidan O'Brien's filly is by War Front out of the Irish 1000 Guineas winner Marvellous and her full brother Fort Myers runs in the opener. Arabeska is another capable of better after staying on nicely over 6f at Naas while A Step Too Far made an encouraging debut over the minimum here in November and looks best of the remainder.
