€18,000 foal, €21,000 3yo; tenth foal, closely related to the 2m4f-3m hurdle/chase winner Nicole's Milan and the 2m2f hurdle winner Kings Equity; stablemate of Marvellous Joe.
€125,000 3yo; sixth foal; brother to the bumper/2m4f hurdle winner Vanellope and a half-brother to the bumper/2m & 2m5f hurdle winner Irish Buccaneer; of interest.
€1,400 3yo; second foal out of an unraced dam (Shuil Le Vic); others rate as more likely types.
€20,000 yearling, €85,000 3yo; third foal; half-brother to the 2m hurdle winner Grange; dam placed in 2m-2m3f hurdles.
Second foal; dam an unraced great-granddaughter of the French 1m7f hurdle/2m1f chase winner Esposente; this County Kerry handler has only saddled seven previous jumps runners in England (excluding his high-profile runners at Cheltenham & Aintree).
€18,000 foal, £30,000 3yo; fifth foal; half-brother to a couple of winners including the useful 2m3f/2m4f hurdler Champagne Express; stablemate of Crypto.
First foal; dam was a French maiden (Flat and jumps); wears a hood on racecourse debut; yard 0-22 with their runners in NHF races this season.
38,000gns yearling; 12th foal; half-brother to eight winners including Toi Et Moi (1m2f/1m4f Listed); a rare jumps runner for Mark Johnston (5-78 (career); 1-8 in bumpers - Golden Jeffrey at Ayr in February 2017)).
€11,500 3yo; seventh foal, half-brother to the useful 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Cracking Find; stable 5-19 (26%) with their NHF runners this season; owned by the wife of racing presenter Niall Hannity.
First foal; dam La Colinda was placed in a bumper and a 2m5f hurdle; yard among the winners of late but this gelding is probably one for further down the line.
€17,000 juvenile, €40,000 3yo; tenth foal; half-sister to the French winners Arc Des Taillons (1m2f Flat, 2m1f-2m3f hurdle/chase) and Brame De Nuit (1m7f hurdle/2m2f chase).
Forecasts
Brave Seasca (9/4), Och Aye (5/1), Crypto (11/2), Raymond (11/2), Glen Mooar (9/1), Jembug Drummer (10/1), Teescomponentstrig (16/1), Desaray Girl (18/1), Muhtamar (18/1), Marvellous Joe (20/1), Honda Fifty (50/1)
A newcomers bumper, so nothing to work with other than pedigrees, statistics and the early market moves. In truth this race is more about the future than the present and doesn't exactly appeal as a betting medium. Possible contenders include the €125,000 3yo Glen Mooar (Tim Easterby), Jembug Drummer (Tim Vaughan), Och Aye (Mark Johnston), Raymond (Keith Dalgleish) and the Irish raider BRAVE SEASCA (Thomas Cooper). The selection is his trainers first ever Newcastle runner, and a first ride at this track for his jockey Bryan Cooper since partnering Petit Mouchoir in the 2016 Fighting Fifth Hurdle.
