Ready winner of a Hereford bumper on debut in October. That wasn't much of a race and he achieved similar form when fourth under a penalty at Sedgefield. Hurdles bow.

Fair form when fifth in a couple of bumpers this autumn. Below that level sent hurdling last month and looks one for further down the line.

€90,000 3-y-o, Fame And Glory gelding from good NH family. Showed a bit in a point but failed to meet expectations in a bumper in March and had breathing operation since. Tongue tied for hurdles bow.

Pulled up in a point and down the field in a bumper/maiden hurdle in recent months. Likely to struggle again here.

Useful 3-time winner on the Flat for Clive Cox and showed ability in a Hereford novice and Ludlow maiden (both at 2m) switched to this sphere in November. Handicap debut best excused and now hooded.

Down the field in Market Rasen bumper in February but showed more than first time up over hurdles when third behind Mont Segur at Uttoxeter last month. Further progress on the cards.

Fair Flat winner who ended season with gutsy win in 1m handicap at Newmarket in October. Much respected now sent over hurdles and worth a market check.

Of no account on the Flat (started triple figures on all 6 starts) so can only be watched on hurdles bow.

Forecasts

Mont Segur (13/8), Star Academy (2/1), Dobryn (9/4), Rains Of Castamere (11/4), Grangeclare Glory (11/1), Floy Joy (11/1), Just The Man (12/1), Power Home (66/1), Eagle's First (150/1), Num Num (300/1), Jupiter Rising (400/1)

Verdict

This can go to STAR ACADEMY, who finished a place behind Anthony Honeyball's Mont Segur (beaten favourite at Wetherby on Monday) at Uttoxeter last month and can get off the mark at the third attempt over timber with further improvement on the cards. Rains of Castamere is much respected now sent over hurdles.
