In depth

Verdict

This is a poor maiden and though MYLES AHEAD has to concede weight all round due to his bumper victory his overall form in three starts over timber looks strong enough. Illtakeitfromhere had some reasonable form over hurdles in the autumn but her pace may have been blunted after a moderate set of performances over fences. Dontbackme hasn't had the best of luck so far but looks capable of better and could get into the frame, though any rain would aid the cause of Cuil Rogue.
