Horse A-Z
€55,000 purchase who was game in battling back to win on his debut at Ffos Las in December (soft). Nice start, though will need improvement to defy a penalty.
Good jumping pedigree and showed promise on debut at Southwell in January. Raced keenly that day, so possibilities here if able to put that experience to good use.
£16,000 buy and a half-brother to multiple winner and 133-rated No Comment. Interesting to see what the market makes of her chance first time out.
Half-brother to several winners, including Actinpieces, who runs earlier on the card. Sprang a surprise when scoring at 33/1 on his Kempton debut (good to soft) last month, in what is usually a good race of its type. Has to be respected under a penalty.

14/1
Half-brother to a couple of Flat winners rated in the 80s in that sphere, so if he possesses similar ability he should be able to make an impact from a yard going well.

100/1
Pedigree suggests that this might already be stretching her stamina and her debut at Southwell in January gives her plenty to do this time. Yard among the winners.
Of decent stock and related to a point-to-point winner. Yard 1-10 in bumpers in the past five seasons, but this filly should do better when stepped up in trip.

Forecasts

I Know U Too Well (5/4), Haafapiece (2/1), Swinging Concerto (9/2), Blazon (11/2), Buckby Boy (7/1), Second Time Around (8/1), Wick Green (8/1), Potters Hedger (12/1), Blackberry Wine (12/1), Head Hunter (14/1), Town Head (16/1), Miss Malarky (40/1), Bury The Evidence (100/1)

Verdict

An interesting bumper. I Know U Too Well, Haafapiece and Blazon all look capable of improving on their debut wins under their respective penalties, though defying those is always tough and the suggestion is POTTERS HEDGER, who is well-related and after two runs he looks ready to strike. Market checks are advised regarding Head Hunter, Buckby Boy and Second Time Around.
  1. Potters Hedger
  2. Blazon
  3. Haafapiece
