Wild Shot has won five times in 32 starts on the track but is 8lb higher than his last winning mark. PEMPIE, a winner at Salisbury for Andrew Balding, made a cracking start for new connections at Leopardstown where she only just failed to match strides with the in-form Reverberation. She's gone up 3lb but a repeat would see her very difficult to beat. Rockview Roman completed a course and distance double in the autumn but has struggled from his higher mark while Cursu Mina has his first start on the surface, though has only raced five times. Marmolata is one to note in the market as her best run in just four starts came on this track in October and she's changed hands.
