11/4
Sinndar gelding who (7/1) showed some promise when fifth of 10 in bumper at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) on NH debut 74 days ago. Can build on that now, so not ruled out.

40/1, hinted at ability when fourth of 5 in bumper at Bangor (16.7f, heavy) on NH debut 52 days ago. Needs to step forward now.

Norse Dancer gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler Bothar Dubh. Bred to be no back number so respected newcomer on paper. Market can guide.

150/1 but shaped with promise when fourth of 14 in bumper over C&D on debut 24 days ago, finishing well having suffered poor passage. Interesting with more to come this time.

Only ninth of 10 in bumper (80/1) at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 69 days ago. Blinkers quickly reached for with significantly more required.

€5,000 3-y-o, El Salvador gelding. Dam ran once. Another newcomer who could make a mark but betting can prove best guide.

Nayef gelding. Dam 1m/8.3f winner. Pedigree offers appeal for his first start so not discounted by any means.

Failed to live up to market expectations (9/4) when fading fifth of 9 in bumper at Huntingdon (13.7f) on NH debut 72 days ago. Bred to be well-above average though so could easily step forward here.

Forecasts

Fantomas (11/4), Maxcel (3/1), Big Pete (3/1), Independence (11/2), Socks Off (12/1), Sake Of Secrecy (12/1), Ruler Ryde (14/1), Iggy Iggins (20/1), Make A Deal (40/1), Fine Investment (66/1), Sunday Shoes (250/1)

Verdict

INDEPENDENCE belied his odds when making a promising start over C&D last month so looks the way to go with improvement in the pipeline. Fantomas appeals as the one to chase him home after also making an encouraging start when fifth at Market Rasen with Mick Appleby's Ruler Ryde rating the pick of the newcomers.

  1. INDEPENDENCE (USA)
  2. FANTOMAS (FR)
  3. RULER RYDE
