      In depth

      Verdict

      Bold Tara is getting closer with a recent fourth at Fontwell giving her every chance in this but WILD RHUBARB is just preferred. She'll have come on for her recent comeback in better company at Newbury and won't need to improve much, with Tony McCoy taking over the reins, to get her head in front here. Winning pointer Best Bette makes her hurdling debut after failing to figure over regulation fences and Timeforagin could prove best of the remainder.
