Milton Road continues to slip down the weights and this is no better than the first division. I Am Dandy has only won on Tapeta so far but is a consistent sort who is unlikely to be far away again. Joyful Star may have needed his run at Newcastle but isn’t getting any younger so the vote goes to AHUNDREDNOTOUT. Though still a maiden on Turf, the five-year-old did go close off similar marks at Naas and Fairyhouse last year in better races than this.
