Bumper winner who confirmed himself an above average prospect with a comfortable hurdle success over 19f at Fontwell. Unseated rider fourth there next time, so remains with potential.
|
Clearly had an issue or 2 but was well prepared to make 3rd Rules start a winning one after 8 months off at Ffos Las. Found out in stronger company since but respected now returning to calmer waters.
|
Bumper winner who left his hurdling debut form behind without being given an overly hard time when third of 15 in Wincanton novice (21.4f) last month. Open to further progress.
|
Picked up for £50,000 after winning her sole start between the flags and made a successful debut over hurdles under a ride that left little to chance at Market Rasen in November. Open to improvement.
|
Well-bred and fetched €105,000 as a 3-y-o, but hasn't offered a great deal in a pair of bumpers
|
Good pedigree and showed more than first time up (in a bumper) when sixth of 14 in a maiden hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f) last month. Should improve.
|
Won completed start in Irish points and showed fairly useful form in finding only one too good both starts over hurdles to end 2019. Remains open to improvement back from a break.
|
Fair form at best in 3 runs for Nicky Henderson spread out over a 30-month period.
|
Signs of only a little ability in novice hurdles.

Forecasts
Sending Love (2/1), Only The Bold (9/4), Sir Sholokhov (7/2), Ballingers Corner (9/2), Lord Accord (11/2), Animal (8/1), Voyage De Retour (40/1), No Hubs No Hoobs (50/1), Breakwater Buoy (50/1), Just A Cracker (250/1)
LORD ACCORD's hurdling debut win has worked out well and he remains with potential back from a break, so he looks as appealing as any. Sir Sholokhov seems likely to build on his Newbury performance, especially with his yard now showing signs of a revival, while Sending Love and Ballingers Corner are others to consider.
