Placed all 4 starts under Rules, finding an above-average point recruit too strong at Catterick a month ago. The one to beat down in trip.
|
Touched off in course bumper for John Quinn in March 2019 before being well held at Ayr for this yard 6 weeks later (saddle slipped). Hooded and showed little on hurdles debut following 21 months off.
|
A cheap purchase who didn't show much in a bumper for Gemma Anderson back in 2016/17 but did at least offer something to work on sent hurdling last month.
|
Fetched €70,000 as a 3-y-o and justified market support when making a winning bumper debut at Kelso. Fitted with a hood and a shade disappointing on hurdles bow back there the following month.
|
€15,000 half-brother to useful hurdler/smart chaser Farnice. Bumper efforts to end 2020 weren't devoid of promise and he's bred for the jumping game.
|
Modest on Flat, stays 7f, well below form last time. Stamina a concern even if taking to hurdling minus usual headgear.
|
Fairly useful form when landing 2m bumper at Sedgefield in December. Fell early on hurdles debut later that month and this will reveal more.
|
Milan gelding who failed to show a great deal in a bumper/maiden hurdle 15 months apart. Since had a wind op and a tongue tie is fitted.
|
No show in bumper won by Fete Champetre here on debut but showed far more promise when runner-up in first-time cheekpieces on hurdles bow over this C&D. Dropped away tamely 3 weeks later.
|
€30,000 3-y-o, Flemensfirth gelding. Brother to useful bumper winner Letsbeclearaboutit. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt and produced a promising first effort over hurdles at Doncaster.
|
Winning pointer but has shown little under Rules so far.
|
Half-brother to useful hurdler Sleepy Haven (2m-17f winner), stays 3m. Fair maiden on Flat, best effort at 1m, left poorly placed when second in seller last time for Mick Channon.

Up For Parol (1/1), Barrichello (13/8), Not What It Seems (15/2), Fete Champetre (20/1), Geonice (28/1), Sergeant O'leary (40/1), Biblical (40/1), The Electrician (50/1), Urban Legend (80/1), Jovial Spirit (100/1), Faraday Effect (200/1), Mo Henry (200/1), One Step Too Far (250/1)
Having won a point, UP FOR PAROL offered plenty to work on when fourth at Doncaster in January. With that under his belt, he may well improve by Barrichello, who sets the standard but has had 3 goes now and this drop back in trip is by no means sure to suit. Of the rest, Fete Champetre has to be capable of better.
