Irish point recruit who tied up late on in a Newton Abbot bumper but impressed with his finishing effort when scoring on Chepstow hurdle debut 3 months on. Sets clear standard back down in trip.
|
Modest bumper performer who offered a bit to work on prior to his fall at the last (held in fifth) on C&D hurdling debut. Probably one for handicaps over further.
|
Fetched €70,000 as a 3-y-o and shaped well when third in a good ground course bumper in November. That form has been boosted since, so he merits consideration on hurdle debut.
|
Irish point winner well held in bumpers/21.3f novice at this course this season. Looks one for handicaps down the line.
|
Little impact in Irish points and well held both starts over hurdles.
|
Fair bumper winner but not seen since pulling up on Ffos Las hurdling debut in November 2018.
|
Showed fair form when runner-up in pair of bumpers for Jamie Snowden in the autumn. Goes hurdling for new handler now and is bred to have a future in this sphere.
|
Third sole start in points and has run to a fair level on both completed starts over hurdles, latest over C&D, but it's possible he won't improve until tackling longer trips.
|
Successful twice in points back in March 2019. Entitled to have needed the run on recent Rules debut over C&D, but perhaps he's more one for handicaps later on.
|
Maiden pointer who is seemingly being brought along with handicaps in mind, never involved over C&D 16 days ago.
|
No form in points or in a pair of maiden hurdles under Rules.
|
Winning pointer but well held in a pair of maiden hurdles.
|
Modest form only start in bumpers and in need of the experience on Plumpton hurdle debut. Most likely one for later on.
|
Well held in bumper/2 hurdles. Likely booked for another struggle.

Forecasts
Pozo Emery (4/9), Earth Business (9/2), Longshanks (10/1), Light N Strike (12/1), Whydah Gally (16/1), Blackjack Magic (28/1), Glentrool (28/1), Manofmanywords (33/1), Entre Deux (150/1), Tip Top Mountain (150/1), No Drama (250/1), Dynamic Kate (250/1), Foillmore (250/1), Sweet Fab's (300/1)
POZO EMERY impressed with his finishing effort when scoring on his hurdling debut at Chepstow last month and, with that form working out, he looks well capable of defying a penalty back down in trip. Light N Strike and Earth Business have both shown enough in bumpers to suggest they should have a future in this sphere.
