11/4

Unraced Milan gelding out of Up The Style (bumper placed). Cost €42,000 as a three-year-old, and whilst of obvious interest on debut given his connections, he should come into his own over longer trips with more time.

100/1

Not shown anywhere near enough ability in three starts in bumpers so far to merit any consideration whatsoever in an overly competitive contest.

50/1

Unraced mare by Black Sam Bellamy out of an unraced Gunner B mare (Gundreda). Her dam was a sister to the talented staying chaser Gunner Welburn, so this mare can perhaps do much better herself with time and experience. Tongue tied.

A divided bumper with which to conclude the Tuesday Bangor-on-Dee action, and a contest which promises to offer plenty for the future. A number of the leading stables are represented by newcomers, whilst Oliver Greenall saddles Bronzeallure in bidding to capture his own (sponsored) race. By Milan, Stylish Moment could require the combination of a longer trip and obstacles in order to be seen at his best, but he represents a trainer (Alan King) who has done extremely well with his bumper runners so far this term, whilst Haul Away also deserves maximum respect hailing from Seven Barrows and having cost €40,000 as a three-year-old. However, it is the Nigel Twiston-Davies trained newcomer ONE FOR ROSIE who gets the nod. This grey gelding by Getaway is a half-brother to the useful bumper/hurdles winner Air Horse One, and not only represents high profile owners, but also has a very talented young rider aboard for his racecourse debut this afternoon.
