Irish point winner who made a winning start for new yard in course bumper in October and easily followed up in 20.5f Ayr maiden hurdle 5 weeks later. More to come and the one to beat.
|
No impact in bumpers and three novice hurdles for George Bewley. Big improvement required for new yard here.
|
28/1, encouraging third of 8 in novice over C&D (heavy) on hurdles bow 18 days ago. Should progress so not ruled out.
|
Maiden pointer who (50/1) hinted at ability when thirteenth of 23 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20f, soft) on NH debut 18 months ago. Lots more required on first run for new yard now.
|
40/1 and hooded, raced keenly when fading fifth of 10 in novice hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 69 days ago. Can improve if he settles better.

Forecasts
Alaphilippe (2/5), Falcone De Bersy (11/2), Time Leader (13/2), Won't Talk (11/1), Arcanja (250/1)
ALAPHILIPPE has to shoulder a 7 lb penalty but is impossible to oppose after his impressive debut hurdling success at Ayr last month with plenty of improvement in the pipeline. Falcone de Bersy is sure to build on his encouraging C&D third so looks the one to chase him home ahead of Won't Talk, who could also have a say if he becomes more tractable.
- ALAPHILIPPE (IRE)
- FALCONE DE BERSY (FR)
- WON'T TALK (IRE)
