Verdict
Donnacha O'Brien has his first-ever runner here with MYTHOLOGIC, transferred from his father and probably unlucky not to have lost his maiden tag by now. He can make a successful start though Moll has improved with every run and only just failed to catch Apricot Moon over the track and trip last month. Our Shakila has been staying on at one pace and may do better over further while Algeria has changed stables since a promising start here in November behind the odds-on So Suave. China's Storm missed the break but kept on nicely over the course and distance last month. Corvus Glaive and Crashdaparty are newcomers to keep an eye on.
