Bachy Baby²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: M Blake

12/1

Faller in a bumper on debut for Neil Mulholland in December and well held on debut for this yard last month. Others make more appeal.

Form: F8-

Eyehaveagoodidea^t1

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

2/1

Unraced home-bred son of Black Sam Bellamy. Dam successful five times on the Flat and worth a check in the market with a tongue tie worn on racecourse debut.

Form:

Seven De Baune¹⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: Ian Williams

15/8

Good effort in finishing runner-up in a point-to-point in Ireland in December and purchased for £75,000 subsequently. One to note for a stable who have had a few winners (5/32) of late.

Form: 2-

Troy Dee Knee¹¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: M Goldstein| T: S Lycett

25/1

Well beaten 12th when making his debut in a bumper over an extended 1m5f at Huntingdon (soft) in January. Likely to struggle once more.

Form: 0-

Global Anchor

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Aidan Coleman| T: J & A O'Neill

7/2

Unraced son of Stowaway bought for €85,000 at the sales in June last year. Half-brother to a point-to-point winner and represents a stable in good form (5/30) at present.

Form:

Off The Beat¹⁶⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: B S Hughes| T: J Mackie

12/1

Beaten 13½L when finishing eighth of nine in a bumper over 1m5f at Doncaster (good-to-soft) in December. Probably best watched at present.

Form: 8-

Yalla Habibti²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Dave Crosse| T: M Mullineaux

16/1

Improved effort when finishing 5L fifth at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) on first start since joining this yard last month. Likely to find at least one too good in this however.

Form: 7/85-

Forecasts

Seven De Baune (15/8), Eyehaveagoodidea (2/1), Little Jack (9/4), Global Anchor (7/2), Cross Of Steel (10/1), Bachy Baby (12/1), Off The Beat (12/1), Yalla Habibti (16/1), Troy Dee Knee (25/1)

The booking of Richard Johnson for LITTLE JACK catches the eye and given his trainers good record in bumpers he is the selection to get off the mark at the first time of asking in the concluding race on the card. Seven De Baune, an expensive purchase following a placed effort in a point-to-point last autumn can finish runner-up ahead of Global Anchor who is another making his debut in this.
