Horse A-Z
Confirmed debut promise when landing a bumper at Market Rasen in November and could improve further still, so definite player despite his penalty.

€15,000 3-y-o, Barastraight gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners on Flat, including 10.5f-1½m winner Valyeva. Dam 12.5f-15f winner. Wears tongue strap. One to note if market speaks in his favour.

6/1
Muhtahir gelding who was runner-up in a bumper at Southwell 81 days ago, faring best of those held up. Likely to step forward from that, so looks a player.
|
Timeform
Off mark in Irish points at third attempt last time and some promise to glean from both starts in bumpers. Marked improvement required to land this, however.
|
Timeform
Cheap purchase who was last at Hereford on debut in November. Set for another struggle.

€110,000 3-y-o, Kayf Tara gelding. Dam, ran once in bumper, sister to unreliable but fairly useful hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 27f) Ollie Magern. Interesting newcomer.

11/8
Unbeaten mare who again had something up her sleeve over C&D last time and is still in receipt of weight from the majority despite her double penalty. Well respected.

€3,000 3-y-o, Shirocco mare. Dam unraced half-sister high-class hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) to Back In Front. Wears hood. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Mayhem Mya (11/8), Luttrell Lad (11/4), Get Sky High (9/2), Kayf Taoi (5/1), Deeper Blue (6/1), American Gerry (14/1), Golden Roc (14/1), Who's Zoomin Who (40/1), Captain Nemeau (50/1), Jukebox Junior (400/1), Arctic Poet (400/1)

Verdict

LUTTRELL LAD was well on top at the finish when opening his account at Market Rasen in November and, in an open race, is marginally preferred to the unbeaten filly Mayhem Mya. Newcomer Kayf Taoi also makes appeal for Paul Nicholls.

  1. LUTTRELL LAD (IRE)
  2. MAYHEM MYA
  3. KAYF TAOI
