Has failed to hit the frame in seven starts, two of them on turf. Makes little appeal on his first start since finishing down the field at Kempton in September.

2/1
Useful hurdler who was making his Flat debut when 10th of 11 in a Listed contest at Nottingham. This is a much weaker race and jockey booking catches the eye.

Sent off at big prices when well held in maidens at Nottingham and Haydock when trained by Alan King. First run for this stable following an absence of over 10 months and is fitted with a hood. Best watched.

Ex-Irish gelding who has failed to hit the frame in 13 starts, including on debut for this stable at Wolverhampton In December. Makes little appeal.

7/1
Gelded son of Cityscape who is a half-brother to a couple of winners over 1m2f. Distant fifth of seven behind a subsequent Group race winner on debut at Windsor and is open to considerable improvement.

8/13
Cape Cross colt who cost 60,000 gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to two winners from 1m to 1m4f. Promising debut over 1m in a competitive Newmarket maiden and normal improvement over this longer trip would put him firmly in the picture.

Forecasts

King Lud (8/13), Coeur Blimey (2/1), Ishallak (7/1), One Liner (33/1), Moans Cross (66/1), Champagne Freddie (66/1), Nafaayes (66/1)

Verdict

An ordinary novice event which can go to KING LUD, who ran well in a strong-looking Newmarket maiden on debut and seems likely to improve over this longer trip. Ishallak can step up on his first run at Windsor, while useful hurdler Coeur Blimey should find this much easier than the Listed event he contested on his first Flat outing at Nottingham.
  1. King Lud
  2. Ishallak
  3. Coeur Blimey
