Question: Wizard signed a valid catering contract with Yummy Pty Ltd to supply the Funlandia food outlets. Yummy realized it had underquoted in its contract price

Wizard signed a valid catering contract with Yummy Pty Ltd to supply the Funlandia food outlets. Yummy realized it had underquoted in its contract price and was under pressure to source produce as cheaply as possible. Unfortunately, this resulted in contamination of the chicken products. There was an outbreak of food poisoning amongst Funlandia patrons and staff. Many customers left early and were confined to the bathroom, causing a drop in takings. Sadly, this also meant that Wizard had to cancel Funlandia's entry into the International Theme Park Singing Competition that had promised much favourable publicity for Funlandia. Wizard has also had to pay $100 000 in compensation to poisoned patrons.

Required: Advise Wizard of any remedies it may have against Yummy and the likelihood of success.
