Modest form at best in bumpers and little impression so far over hurdles. Easily opposed.

50/1
Modest staying maiden on Flat. Best effort over hurdles when third in Wincanton novice but let down by jumping when only tenth on handicap bow there last time. Visor replaced blinkers and considered.

8/15
Useful 14f Flat winner who overcame inexperience to make a winning hurdling debut at Southwell (2m) in September. Good second in 14f Chelmsford handicap back on level 22 days ago. One to beat here.

Timeform
Placed all three runs in bumpers but yet to match that over hurdles, cheekpieces fitted when fourth of 9 in 2m Southwell novice last time. Headgear left off now but others still appeal more.

Fair 2m Flat winner for Mick Channon, leaving that yard for £7,000 in July. Showed nothing both starts over hurdles for this yard so others lot more persuasive.

Remains a maiden, and he has shown little over hurdles this term since returning from 23 months off, cheekpieces enlisted last time when remote Ffos Las sixth. Hard to make a case for.

Timeform
Fairly useful 10f winner for John Gosden in 2018. Off 2 years and well held both runs in 2m maiden hurdles at Ludlow/Southwell for new yard. Not easiest to assess on bumper bow and market can guide.

Forecasts

Hasanabad (8/15), Le Boulevardier (5/2), Wightman (4/1), Whitlock (5/1), Ace Time (25/1), Good Bye (50/1), Lord Howard (100/1), The Last Melon (125/1), Foxy Singer (150/1)

Verdict

Lots of these have question marks against them but HASANABAD is a useful performer on the level and arrives on the back of good second on Chelmsford's polytrack so should prove very hard to beat here. Wightman is also no slouch on the Flat and also scored over hurdles recently so looks the one to chase home Ian Williams' gelding, with Good Bye appealing as the pick of the remainder.

  1. HASANABAD (IRE)
  2. WIGHTMAN (IRE)
  3. GOOD BYE (GER)
