Verdict

Winning bumper MYLES AHEAD dropped back to this trip at Down Royal and ran his best race for a while. He enjoys quick ground and can get off the mark. Rocky Court would be a definite threat on last summer's form though he hasn't been seen since August. Boston Oscar showed potential in a Punchestown bumper on fast going in October and has a very smart pedigree for jumping. Josh's Chance has improved with every run and wouldn't need much more to get involved in the finish.
