Been running in some hot race so far in his hurdling career and takes a significant drop in grade for this run. Easily forgiven last start and much better expected here.
Turned over a red-hot favourite last time out at Sandown, jumping neatly and travelling smoothly in the process. Has to be considered here.
Trainer has a poor record at the track (1/32) as does the jockey (0/21) and horse still a maiden after seven starts (flat & hurdles).
Yet to confirm the promise shown on the flat in three hurdle starts to date and unlikely to make any impact until sent handicapping.
Still a maiden under all codes after eight starts and was beaten a long way on hurdles debut at Hereford last time out.
Soundly beaten on hurdles debut at Sandown at the start of the month and looks to need plenty more experience before being considered as a betting proposition.
Maiden on the flat although did show glimmers of promise in seven starts. Makes hurdling debut here but trainer not known for having debut winners (1/16 with hurdling debutantes in recent years).
Showed some decent form on the flat in Germany last year and was considered good enough to contest the German Derby (finished well-beaten). Trainer can spring surprises with hurdling debutantes but generally they are best watched.
Above average on the flat last year and showed improved form on her second start over hurdles last time out, finishing second to one that has already won again since.
Forecasts
Don Bersy (1/1), Dino Velvet (7/4), Hestina (9/2), Landin (16/1), Alcanar (20/1), Aristocles (33/1), Black Buble (100/1), Banff (100/1), Josh Perry (100/1)
DINO VELVET has been contesting much stronger races than this on his three hurdle starts to date and although he disappointed on his last run he meets nothing of the caliber of those opponents here. The Filly Hestina is interesting at the bottom of the weights and last time out winner Don Bersy should be in the mix as well. Of the newcomers Landin is of a certain level of interest based on his flat form in Germany.
1. Dino Velvet
