Put in a couple of solid performances in late 2016 most notably when beaten 9¾L over an extended 1m7f at Ascot (good-to-soft). Well held twice this spring and interesting dropping back in trip here.
Signs of promise in bumpers and ran well to finish runner-up to a useful rival over 2m at Ludlow (good) last time out. Career best effort on that occasion and likely to play a leading role today.
Finished third in a point-to-point from six starts in that sphere. Well held in all three rules runs to date and drops back markedly in trip here having finishing 60L last of six over an extended 2m7f last time.
Point-to-point bumper winner over 2m at Barbury Castle (good-to-soft) for Shark Hanlon and signs fo ability in three runs for this yard. Latest of those came when 14L second over 2m4f at Hexham (good) and wears cheekpieces for the first time with a useful jockey booked to ride here.
Beaten a short-head over an extended 2m at Stratford (good) in a novices hurdle two months ago. Career best effort on that occasion and an interesting runner with an eye shield fitted for the first time today.
Forecasts
Burst Ya Bubble (11/8), Otter Moon (2/1), Lerichi Belle (7/2), New List (8/1), Robert De Bruce (50/1), Master Bones (50/1)
NEW LIST has run well the last twice and can gain a first rules victory by claiming this opening conditional jockeys maiden hurdle. the selection won a point-to-point bumper in January for his previous yard and this drop in trip can see him defeat Otter Moon who ran well at Ludlow last time while Burst Ya Bubble can claim third.
