Horse silk
50/1
Placed in a point-to-point from five starts but well held in two novice hurdles so far and likely to fair better once tackling handicap contests. Wears a hood for the first time today.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-2| J: Adrian Heskin| T: T R George| OR:  115| BF
15/8
Point-to-point winner in May 2015 but yet to win in nine rules races so far. Beaten 11L when second of nine over 2m at Warwick (good) last month and likely to run well again in this.
3
Horse silk
12/1
Successful twice from 32 starts on the Flat including in a Listed event over 2m at Sandown (good-to-firm) in July 2014. Yet to score since and well beaten in four starts since joining this yard late last year.
4
Horse silk
15/8
Dual bumper winner including at Ayr over 2m on good-to-soft ground last October. Well held when 13th of 19 in a Grade 2 contest over 2m1f at Aintree (good) in April and an interesting runner on his debut over hurdles.
5
Horse silk
50/1
Improved on pulled up debut when finishing fourth in a point-to-point at Dowth Hall (good-to-yielding) last October. Worth a check in the market on rules debut.
6
Horse silk
Mister Universum29
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR:  113
11/4
Winner of three races on the Flat but held in three races over hurdles so far. Those have including a conditions event at Newbury and a Grade 2 Kempton event. Short of room when only fifth at Newton Abbot last time out and likely to run well in this.
8
Horse silk
150/1
Maiden after 15 starts including three over hurdles. Well held fourth of seven at Ludlow (good) last month and likely to struggle in this.
Unraced home-bred daughter of Malinas. Dam failed to complete in four of her six starts and hard to recommend on her racecourse debut.

Forecasts

Get Rhythm (15/8), Loud And Clear (15/8), Mister Universum (11/4), Havana Beat (12/1), Pink Champers (20/1), Minella Voucher (50/1), Caviar D'Allen (50/1), Enmeshing (50/1), All Dolled Up (150/1)

Verdict

Dual bumper winner LOUD AND CLEAR can get off the mark at the first time of asking over hurdles today. The selection showed a decent level of ability in bumpers winning on two occasions and he can get the better of Get Rhythm who ran well when runner-up at Warwick last month. Of the remainder Mister Universum represents a good yard and can claim third today.
  1. Loud And Clear
  2. Get Rhythm
  3. Mister Universum
