Verdict

GONE TOO FAR was well beaten in a Grade Three hurdle at Sandown last time but this is more his level. He won at Wetherby in November and a repeat should be good enough in this despite carrying a penalty. Paradise Valley is also penalised for winning a maiden hurdle at Wincanton last week but still looks the main danger ahead of I Got Power, already beaten when falling at Wetherby last month. Hung Parliament has a fifth at Ascot to his credit while Bermacha wasn't disgraced in heavy ground at Lingfield on her hurdling bow.
