      Verdict

      What Wonders Weave won a maiden race at Hamilton last month with a horse rated 74 back in third. That gives her something to find on these terms with a few of these. World War finished ahead of subsequent maiden winner Druids Cross at the Curragh last year and headgear is applied for the first time today while Modern Approach won her maiden at Gowran and had earlier finished ahead of STEEL PRINCE over track and trip. But the latter re-opposes on much better terms in this and is fancied to take his revenge.
