£26,000 3-y-o, Kalanisi gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Carrigeen Lotus. Will only be of interest on debut if the market vibes are notably upbeat.

Clear signs of ability starting out in a Plumpton bumper last December, but well held at Catterick next time and probably best watched on this hurdles debut.

Having offered little in a bumper and 2 starts over hurdles, this 5-y-o needs to raise his game considerably.

8/13
Useful 2m bumper winner at Ayr before third in listed event at Newbury when last seen in February. Likely to do better now switched to hurdles and he's very high on the shortlist.

£72,000 half-brother to 17f hurdle winners in France Ariane Nopolis and Vanika Place. However, failed to make an impact on debut in an Ascot bumper last November and may need more time.

Fetched €60,000 as a 3-y-o, but will need to leave his debut effort in a Warwick bumper well behind in order to play a leading role now tackling hurdles.

Runner-up on second of his 2 starts in Irish maiden points. Efforts over hurdles at Taunton and Newton Abbot not completely devoid of promise, but this demands a significant step forward.

Regressive in bumpers last season and, having undergone a wind operation during the summer, he's failed to complete in a couple of novice hurdles.

No show in a couple of bumpers for Jimmy Frost, and leap of faith required in order to lend him support on this hurdles debut for new yard.

Showed fair level of ability in bumpers last year and when fourth of 13 on hurdles debut at Taunton (16.5f) in December. Open to improvement and good each-way chance if fully tuned-up.

Little impact in a bumper on debut last month and similar story when switched to hurdles at Huntingdon (15.8f) recenty.

Forecasts

Champagnesuperover (8/13), When You're Ready (2/1), Balleticon (4/1), God Knows Why (10/1), Ewood Park (10/1), El Tornado (18/1), Global Effect (33/1), Aeronisi (50/1), Troed Y Parc (50/1), Brother Pat (66/1), Delgany Dancer (66/1), Mawlood (80/1), Bring The Bacon (125/1)

Verdict

Judged on what he showed in bumpers last season, CHAMPAGNESUPEROVER looks a cut above these rivals and he will prove very hard to beat if his jumping passes the test. When You're Ready shaped pretty well on his hurdles debut and he is second choice ahead of the long-absent Balleticon.
