A L'asseau¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: Evan Williams

50/1

Cost €10,000 as a three-year-old and may deal with the softer conditions better than some based on his pedigree. May want further with time but respected for a trainer who has a good record in bumpers.

Form:

Destined To Shine³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: R T Dunne| T: Kerry Lee

20/1

Cost €18,000 as a three-year-old and trainer does well around here but she's 0-5 in bumpers over the last 12 months.

Form: 0

Dollnamix⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: S Bowen| T: H Fry

7/1

Should deal with soft conditions and trainer has an excellent record in this sphere but he only has a 5% record at this track and that's low for such a respected trainer. Jockey has a fine record at this track.

Form: 0

Kaveman

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

1/1

Potentially smart on pedigree (related to several winners) and jockey booking an obvious plus. Likely to be of warm order in the market but trainer hasn't got the best record in bumpers.

Form: 6-3

Paisley Park

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: D A Jacob| T: Miss E C Lavelle

6/1

Expensive €60,000 purchase and jockey booking looks positive. Trainer has a very low strike rate at this course though (around 3%) so others preferred.

Form:

Project Mars³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Wayne Hutchinson| T: N J Gifford

28/1

Likely to want plenty further than this and will most likely need more time.

Form: 532-

Rock And Roll King³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr Lewis Gordon⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams

33/1

Jockey has an excellent strike rate (nearly 30%) in bumpers and cost €18,000 as a three-year old. Trainer has a respectable record in this sphere so respect warranted.

Form: 9

The Floating Bear^t1

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

16/1

Tongue strap on debut slightly off-putting. but related to plenty of winners. Trainer has an excellent record in bumpers so market check advised.

Form:

Well Smitten²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁷⁾| T: W Greatrex

8/1

Cost €5,000 as a yearling and €50,000 as a three-year-old. May want further with time but trainers excellent record in these races makes him hard to rule out.

Form: 7

Battle Of Ideas⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Nick Scholfield| T: C L Tizzard

16/1

Cost €3,000 as a yearling and €16,000 as a three-year-old. Trainer not known for his bumper winners and they usually come on markedly for their first run.

Form:

Echnaton¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: L P Aspell| T: L Wadham

16/1

Cost €16,000 as a yearling and €50,000 as a three-year-old. Related to some winners but will probably want further. Interesting to see what the market makes of him as trainer has a good record in these races.

Form: 0

Our Young Un

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Daniel Hiskett⁽⁵⁾| T: J Gallagher

100/1

Trainer not had a bumper winner for well over a year and plenty of others make more appeal on pedigree.

Form:

Point Of Principle³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Alan Johns⁽³⁾| T: Tim Vaughan

50/1

Cost €8,500 last year. Trainer's has a good record in these races and this looks about the right kind of trip on debut. Interesting runner.

Form:

Sir Egbert²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: T Scudamore| T: T Lacey

16/1

Trainer has a respectable record in these races and jockey booking is an obvious positive but likely to want further and more time.

Form: 3

Faint Hope

Weight: 11-5| Age: 5

Amoola Gold

Weight: 10-7| Age: 4

Kaveman (1/1), Paisley Park (6/1), Dollnamix (7/1), Well Smitten (8/1), Amoola Gold (8/1), Sir Egbert (16/1), Battle Of Ideas (16/1), The Floating Bear (16/1), Echnaton (16/1), Destined To Shine (20/1), Project Mars (28/1), Rock And Roll King (33/1), Point Of Principle (50/1), A L'asseau (50/1), Faint Hope (66/1), Our Young Un (100/1)

A typically tricky bumper with 16 debutantes to sort through but a chance is taken on ROCK AND ROLL KING. His jockey has a remarkable record in this sphere and he may be very good value for that 7 lb claim. Trainer also does well in these races so plenty to like about his chance. Well Smitten cost a pretty penny and his connections should always be respected in bumpers and similar can be said for Echnaton. Any support for either of those could be telling. 1. Rock And Roll King 2. Well Smitten 3. Echnaton
