Won a maiden hurdle at Naas in February despite jumping badly before not being disgraced when upped in class at same track in March; interesting contender on debut over fences.

Well beaten in bumpers and one hurdles race; unlikely to be good enough unless market speaks highly of his chances.

4/9
Is the pick here based on his hurdles form which was highly progressive before below par on his last start of the season at Aintree; certainly the one to beat if taking to the larger obstacles and looks the class horse in the race.

Failed to complete any of his starts in point-to-points and has been well held over hurdles too. Others look to hold much stronger credentials at present.

Weak 13-race maiden who has produced nothing on the racecourse to suggest he would be capable of landing this.

Forecasts

Dallas Des Pictons (4/9), Advantage Point (15/8), The Shunter (16/1), The Long Mile (20/1), Trans Wood (25/1), Ask And Answer (25/1), Our Big Red (33/1), Boston Hill (33/1)

Verdict

DALLAS DES PICTONS is head and shoulders above any of his rivals on hurdling form and it would be a surprise if he is not ready to win this on his chase debut, Still, it will be his first time over fences should he have any problems then the mare Trans Wood could be the one to take advantage given the wonderfully consistent form she showed over the summer. Advantage Point has some winning form over hurdles and if he can translate that to chasing then he holds a reasonable chance of making the places.
