Was pulled up at Wincanton on his return to the track, having not raced since 2013, and has no obvious chance today.
From a respected yard that is very capable of having him primed for his first start over hurdles. His form in bumpers and a point-to-point reads well and looks worthy of consideration here.
Going the right way and his previous Jumping experience only bolsters his claims. His yard was back amongst the winners this week so plenty of ticks in the right boxes.
Got going late on his debut but showed glimpses of ability but may need more time to come to hand.
Ex pointer who has shown little form to date under rules and hard to envisage others will not have his measure here.
Can make the running if he has to but this trip may be the limit for him just now and he will do well to resist all comers on this ground.
Shown little to suggest a win is around the corner and not one for betting purposes this time around.
Acts on the ground and should stay the trip but in his own time and appears too one paced to pose a threat.
The World's End, who runs earlier on the card, is worth noting to see if he can boost the merits of this fellow's form. Ran well in a bumper here back in October so has nothing to fear from the undulating surface. Capable of going close in this company.
Forecasts
Earlshill (9/4), Imperial Bay (3/1), Dashing Perk (7/2), Lord Bryan (6/1), Twist On Ginge (8/1), Pine Warbler (12/1), Limoncello (66/1), Barney Boy (200/1), Next Level (200/1)
It may be best to concentrate on EARSHILL and Twist On Ginge, with the former open to plenty of improvement and looking the more interesting contender at this precise moment. He is a staying chaser in the making but was pretty deft at his hurdles on debut so can be expected to know what’s required from him. Dashing Perk an Imperial Bay are others to keep tabs on from here.
1. Earlshill
2. Twist On Ginge
3. Imperial Bay
