Courtland²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Alan Johns| T: P & M Bowen

16/1

Fair seventh in a 2m1f bumper at Exeter (soft) when making his debut earlier this month. Likely to have improved for the experience and market support would be notable.

9/2

Point-to-point winner on good-to-soft ground over 2m4f in April and finished a good third in a heavy ground bumper over 2m at Ffos Las on Rules debut last month. Wears a tongue tie for the first time.

Java Point³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: R Johnson| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| BF

5/2

Winner of a point-to-point on soft-to-heavy ground in March and showed good form when fourth in a soft ground bumper over an extended 1m7f at Southwell on Rules debut a month ago. Strong claims in this contest.

Form: U1-4

Jeremy Pass^t1⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Bryony Frost| T: P F Nicholls

3/1

Faller late on when making his point-to-point debut and finished a decent third in a heavy ground bumper over 2m on first Rules start last month. Represents a top yard and is of interest with a tongue tie worn for the first time.

Form: F-3

Malinello

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Adrian Heskin| T: B PaulingWS

4/1

Unraced Malinas gelding and a half-brother to the useful Cogry among others. Dam a bumper and maiden hurdle winner and he is of interest on debut for a useful stable.

Oneupmanship⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Jack Barber

6/1

Showed promise when beaten a head in a 2m bumper at Uttoxeter (heavy) when making his debut last month. Improvement likely and he is worth a check in the market in this contest.

Form: 2

Little Red Devil

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Thomas Garner| T: B Pauling

20/1

Unraced Cloudings gelding and a half-brother to useful staying chaser Ardkilly Witness. Interesting to see how she performs on her first appearance on the track.

Forecasts

Java Point (5/2), Jeremy Pass (3/1), Malinello (4/1), Getaround (9/2), Wildfire Warrior (5/1), Oneupmanship (6/1), The Rosary Flyer (6/1), Courtland (16/1), Little Red Devil (20/1)

ONEUPMANSHIP can go one better than when finishing runner-up on debut last month by taking the concluding bumper. The selection represents a good yard and he can get the better of Malinello who's related to a number of bumper winners while Jeremy Pass, third on his first Rules outing can fill the same position on this occasion.
