Give Thanks for Best In The World Best In The World cut down stablemate Somehow to take the glory in the Group Three Give Thanks Stakes at Cork. Seamie Heffernan made good headway on Somehow to move into third with two and a half furlongs to race. The pair then motored along the rail to lead a furlong and a half down and went for home. At this stage, Somehow was ploughing her furrow down the centre of the track and raced in second. Colm O'Donoghue drove Best In The World up to challenge Somehow and his mount overcame her close home to win by a neck at 12/1. Somehow was a 7/2 chance. Harlequeen, the 11/10 favourite for Mick Channon, was half a length back in third. Her jockey Silvestre de Sousa was unable to take the ride due to travel problems so Ronan Whelan was called up. Winning trainer Aidan O'Brien said: "She got the trip well and liked the ground. There was a nice bit of pace on and Colm gave her a very good ride. "She ran a very nice race at the Curragh when she was coming but never got through and a bit of nice ground was a big help to her today. "They are two good fillies and have very strong form."
