Limited promise on point-to-point outings and no show on two rules outings so far. More needed here.

Last of 13 on bumper debut last month, probably best watched on hurdling debut.

Well beaten in eight point-to-point starts including when pulled up twice this season and this looks a tough rules debut.

Unraced son of Raintrap. Probably best watched on belated course debut.

4/7
Not beaten far in Irish 2000 Guineas of 2015 but only limited signs of form in valuable Flat handicaps in 2015. Plenty to like about hurdling debut at Kempton in december and this much easier than the graded event he contested at Haydock last time out and looks the one to beat here.

Well beaten on hurdling debut here last month and needs to step up on that to figure in this.

Well held in two bumpers and pulled up on hurdling debut when wearing a first time tongue tie which is retained here.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-3| J: Conor Ring(3)| T: Evan Williams
9/1
26,000 Euro purchase in june 2015, half-brother to dual bumper winner (also hurdles placed) Catching Shadows and from a decent yard. Worth a check in the market.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-3| J: R T Dunne| T: Mrs L J Young
200/1
Off the mark at the fifth attempt in point-to-points but no show in two rules outings so far, including over hurdles latest and a similar story looks likely in this.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-3| J: R Johnson| T: Tim Vaughan
25/1
Not beaten far on bumper debut at Market Rasen last may but disappointed subsequently and well beaten on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter in november. Looks the stable pick however with a top jockey booked to ride.

Volpone Jelois25
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-13| J: H Cobden(3)| T: P F Nicholls| OR:  121
13/8
Multiple Flat winner in France and off the mark at the second attempt here in december. Beaten in a handicap back here last time out but represents a top yard with a leading conditional booked to ride.

Engaging Smile15
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-10| J: Richard Hodson(7)| T: James Moon
100/1
Winner at Kempton on the flat in 2014 but not much promise since racing primarily in Jersey. Makes limited appeal on hurdling debut.

Princess Sonoma30
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-10| J: Nick Scholfield| T: J Scott
25/1
Unraced daughter of Apple Tree. dam a five time winner including three times over hurdles but probably best watched on her belated debut.

50/1
Not beaten far on her bumper debut at Worcester in 2014 but absent for over two years prior to her return in that sphere at Hereford last month. Interesting on hurdling debut here.

Forecasts

Mohaayed (4/7), Volpone Jelois (13/8), Theatre Stage (9/1), Winido (25/1), Princess Sonoma (25/1), Robin Why Not (33/1), Jamesgiftkeysandal (40/1), Sheelbewhatsheelbe (50/1), Big Diamond (66/1), Sacred Summit (100/1), Engaging Smile (100/1), Free Friday (100/1), The Greenvet (200/1), Georgian Hero (250/1)

Verdict

MOHAAYED sets a clear standard from a form perspective in this opening novice hurdle and is taken to get off the mark at the third attempt. The selection was a useful performer on the flat and this marks a significant drop in class compared to his most recent outing, also hailing from a leading stable Volpone Jelois can chase him home while Sheelbewhatsheelbe can round out the placings having shown promise in two bumper outings to date. 1. Mohaayed 2. Volpone Jelois 3. Sheelbewhatsheelbe
