Verdict
Madrasa has won three times on the Flat but has shown little aptitude for hurdling so far. You've Been Mowed is getting no nearer while Baraboy failed to follow up an earlier victory at Sedgefield on Boxing Day when he finished behind the less-exposed Nefyn Bay. Birthday Guest's latest fifth at Wetherby was a better effort but he's managed just one place in nine hurdle starts and that came in a seller. BACK BY MIDNIGHT was well backed at Uttoxeter last month but struggled to jump out of the very heavy ground. He's possibly the one to beat on an earlier second at Fontwell.
