Verdict
A COUNTRY MILE hasn't made the frame in four previous tries under Rules but he's only a seven-year-old and Marc Barber is bringing him along nicely. He was an easy winner between the flags last month and this looks within his capabilities. Boy Of Boru has been knocking on the door recently in point-to-points and should be thereabouts again while Heads Or Tails never seems to run a bad race. Time Is Tickin could be best of the rest.
