€52,000 3-y-o, £100,000 4-y-o. Runner-up sole start in maiden points in October, form which has been boosted by the winner. Joined top yard and very much of interest on Rules debut.
|
Dunaden gelding. Dam temperamental 2½m-23f hurdle winner. Yard isn't a frequent source of winning newcomers and he's probably best watched this time.
|
Dam, lightly-raced in bumpers, half-sister to useful hurdler/top-class chaser (Cheltenham Gold Cup winner) Coneygree. Sports a tongue strap on debut and likely to need more time and distance.
|
£40,000 3-y-o, Spanish Moon gelding. Dam unraced. Yard can certainly ready a newcomer and he's certainly one to note in the betting ahead of this debut. Has undergone a wind op.
|
Off the mark at the third time of asking in Irish points in October. The betting should be a guide with regard to expectations ahead of this Rules debut.
|
Clear-cut debut winner in a bumper at Doncaster in November. Shaped better than the result when fourth of 13 in a listed event at Huntingdon next time and she's a must for the shortlist.
|
Alqaahir gelding. Dam point winner. Others appeal more on pedigree, but he's in very good hands and, with Sam Twiston-Davies booked, he needs a second look in the betting.
|
£30,000 3-y-o, half-brother to 3 winners on Flat. Left debut effort behind when fifth of 14 in 2m Lingfield bumper (AW) last month and each-way chance if able to build on that.
|
Winner of sole start between the flags in October and encouraging third on Rules debut in 13-runner Newcastle bumper (16.2f, AW). Leading claims.
|
Doyen mare. Sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Baddesley Knight and fairly useful hurdler Aarons Day, and half-sister to a winner. Has undergone a wind op prior to this debut.
|
Well held on debut in a Lingfield bumper last month and will need to leave that well behind if he's to make an impact here.
|
Closely related to a winner and half-brother to 5 winners on Flat, including useful 1¼m/11f winner Wickwing. In good hands and it will be very interesting indeed to see what the market has to say.
|
Power filly. Dam 2m hurdle winner, also 1¼m-1½m winner on Flat. Yard's strike rate in bumpers is very modest and this filly will probably come on for the run.

Balco Coastal (5/4), Nina The Terrier (5/2), Get Sky High (8/1), Gold In Doha (14/1), Settle Down (14/1), Red Hot Radish (16/1), My Bad Lucy (18/1), Grangeclare Knight (33/1), Wun Wun (33/1), Ruler Ryde (50/1), Homegrownalligator (50/1), Crawford (66/1), Mr Yeats (66/1), Bold Red (125/1)
The most persuasive piece of form comes from the point-to-point arena, with BALCO COASTAL's debut second to Gentlemansgame in a 4-y-o maiden point in October now looking very solid indeed (the winner was runner-up in a Grade 1 novice hurdle at Leopardstown on Saturday). He is taken to make a winning start under Rules, with Nina The Terrier, Get Sky High and newcomer Red Hot Radish all feared.
- BALCO COASTAL (FR)
- NINA THE TERRIER (IRE)
- GET SKY HIGH (IRE)
