FormscanBy Michael Graham - ARTHUR'S BABY is very hard to get away from after her impressive victory at Cork on Sunday. She travelled all over her rivals before easily putting them away by a comfortable two and three quarter lengths. That handicap hurdle was over an extended two miles three, however, she is a former point-to-point winner so three miles here shouldn't pose problems. She ought to be up to overcoming the 5lb penalty if in the same mood. At the time of writing, her trainer Mark McNiff has had four winners from his last eight runners. Double Windsor has a fondness for this track which makes him dangerous. Half of his four career victories have been in Wexford, and he arrives on the back of a close second over three miles in Cork. Miraculum has been banking place money and has prospects of picking up more. Our Majella ran well for third in Thurles and isn't out of it.
