2/1

Promise when third in juvenile hurdle at Roscommon for William McCreery and put an underwhelming debut for this yard behind him when seeing off Fraterculus at Ludlow recently. Solid claims again.

Form: 331

Alberic

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Bryan Carver⁽⁵⁾| T: Nick Williams

11/1

Poliglote gelding. Dam (c115/h103) French 2m-19f hurdle/chase winner. Not ruled out given his pedigree/connections.

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: James Davies| T: C J Mann

6/1

Fairly useful handicapper stayer for Mark Johnston on the Flat (third in handicap at Chester last time) and bought in for plenty by new connections, so warrants plenty of respect on hurdling bow.

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: R T Dunne| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 105

9/2

Fair 10f maiden on the Flat in Ireland but has only achieved a modest level of form in 4 hurdling outings to date, runner-up to Orchestral Rain at Ludlow on latest.

Form: 4332

Jan Wellens¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: David England| T: O Murphy

40/1

Successful on the Flat for Ger Lyons during the summer but hasn't really taken to hurdling as yet. Needs to jump better.

Form: 54

New Zealander¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Killahena & G McPherson

50/1

Beaten a long way sole Flat start for Charles Hills in January and no promise in a juvenile at Wetherby on hurdling debut.

Form: 6

Sefton Warrior^t³²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: C Brace⁽³⁾| T: R Spencer| BF

18/1

Fair on Flat (stays 1¾m), winner in August, but didn't show enough over C&D on hurdling debut to make him of immediate interest in this sphere, acknowledging the experience might have done him good.

Form: 6

Tamaris⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore

5/2

Fairly useful on the Flat for Roger Charlton, winning a handicap at Wolverhampton last time, so looks an interesting recruit to hurdling starting out for a new yard.

Form:

Forecasts

Orchestral Rain (2/1), Tamaris (5/2), Fraterculus (9/2), Camouflaged (6/1), Alberic (11/1), Sefton Warrior (18/1), Jan Wellens (40/1), New Zealander (50/1)

TAMARIS was much improved when making a winning handicap debut on the Flat when last seen in July and has joined a stable capable of getting one ready for hurdling, so a chance is taken on him to make a winning start in this sphere. Camouflaged appeals as another interesting recruit and Orchestral Rain, the only winner in the field, must be respected.
