In depth

Verdict

MY VALLEY looks the safest option and gets the nod. Pat Phelan's mare scored over C&D in April and went close to following up when third at Goodwood last month. She makes more appeal than Newbury winner Warne's Way, who has struggled off higher marks recently though he does have the beating of Albeed on earlier running. Uncle Keef has been hurdling without success since winning over today's trip at Yarmouth last June, so the lightly-raced Indochina could prove a bigger danger stepping up in trip.
