Verdict

MY DROGO had subsequent Betfair Hurdle winner Soaring Glory comfortably held back in third when landing the Grade 2 Kennel Gate at Ascot in December, so with the prospect of more to come now stepping up in trip, he's fancied to concede weight all round and maintain his unbeaten record over hurdles. Any News, Lucky One and Bareback Jack are all interesting rivals, though.
