In depth
Verdict
Five of these won their latest starts with Youarewonder landing a handicap at Killarney and the remaining quartet winning maiden races. Sir Edwin Landseer scored at Roscommon a fortnight ago but LOST IN SILENCE opened her account at Galway on only her second start and Dermot Weld’s filly gets the nod. She is also preferred to Sligo winner Jose Echegaray, whose defeat of Ontheiflist has him closely matched with Catch A Wave given the latter beat the same horse at Bellewstown last month.
