Verdict

ROLLING DYLAN was unlucky to be headed right on the line at Taunton on his hurdling debut and may have too much for French import Brelan D'as in receipt of 7lb. It's difficult to evaluate the latter's form as he only won a minor contest in October, though wasn't beaten far at Auteuil earlier. Overtown Express ran well before falling at Warwick in November and may be suited by this slightly longer trip but the mare Western Sunrise looked very one-paced in bumpers. Ambion Lane may be a better long-term prospect, despite a rather tame effort at Leicester at the start of the month.
