Verdict
Lullaby takes a big drop in class after racing exclusively at Group 3 and Listed level last season though she looks vulnerable to an improver. Her stable companion ONLY is by Deep Impact and the first foal of the brilliant quadruple Group 1 winner Winter. Ryan Moore's presence suggests she's the one to beat. Porto Cervo also represents the yard and she's closely related to seven winners including Irish Oaks winner Bracelet. Grian An Tsamhra made a nice start at the Curragh last month as did River Rain on the same track in October while Sierra Nevada missed the break when well supported here the same month. Giladah was a disappointing favourite at Dundalk last month.
