It's difficult to know what Karalee achieved at Vichy in August as the winner and third have both been well beaten subsequently. She'll no doubt leave that form well behind but SOPHIE'S WORLD looks to have a better chance. She was travelling really well when falling on her hurdling bow at Down Royal in November but showed no ill-effects when reappearing with a fine run on the Flat at Leopardstown last month. St Peter's Square has taken some time to find his feet but there was plenty to like about his close second at Cork and he can get into the action. My Matador has shown a glimmer of ability since arriving from France and should do better.
