Verdict

Luttrell Lad stayed on strongly to get off the mark at Market Rasen in November but MAYHEM MYA has won both starts with the minimum of fuss and looks a nice filly in the making. Get Sky High should be placed again if she handles the switch to Turf while there is likely to be market interest in the £110,000 purchase Kayf Taoi. Winning pointer Golden Roc has shown some ability under Rules but Southwell runner-up Deeper Blue may have more scope.
