Unraced Winged Love gelding out of a mare who is an unraced sister to the useful Drop Out Joe. Probably best watched on debut for a yard who are 1/52 with their bumper runners in recent years.

Form:

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Daniel Hiskett⁽³⁾| T: R T Phillips

8/1

Victorious by a short-head on point-to-point debut at Moig South (3m, good) in November last year. Purchased for £110,000 subsequently and he is an interesting contender on Rules debut.

33/1

Ran well to finish 6L third in a small field bumper over an extended 1m7f at Wincanton (good-to-firm) on debut just under two months ago. Likely more needed if he's to take this event.

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Ned Curtis⁽³⁾| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls

3/1

Unraced gelding by Flemensfirth purchased for €140,000 in June last year. Half-brother to the high class Black Hercules among others and he is of interest on racecourse debut.

3/1

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: C J Down

150/1

Forecasts

Time To Tinker (3/1), The Edgar Wallace (3/1), Call Simon (7/2), Picanha (8/1), Glencassley (12/1), I Am Plastered (16/1), The Widdow Maker (16/1), Courtland (18/1), Liimari (25/1), Enormouse (25/1), Sakhee's Conquest (33/1), Funway Monarch (50/1), Lightonthewing (80/1), Tile Tapper (100/1), Botus Fleming (125/1), Bollin Cascade (150/1)

CALL SIMON represents a yard who do well in bumpers and he can make a winning debut by taking the concluding race of the day. The selection can get the better of Time To Tinker who represents a top yard while third place can go the way of The Edgar Wallace who is a half-brother to a Grade 1 winner.
