Verdict

ANALOGICAL probably has plenty more to come given his ability on the Flat and how he shaped on his hurdles bow for new connections at Uttoxeter last month, so he gets the vote. The Perfect Poet is worth another chance to confirm the promise of his bumper debut win, while fellow hurdles newcomer Ballyboy Prince needs keeping an eye on for the champion trainer.
