2/7
Still to get his head in front, but has put up some fairly useful efforts over hurdles. Led long way when ninth of 15 in 2m4f handicap at Sandown 21 days ago. The one to beat back in maiden company.

125/1
50/1, eleventh of 12 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, heavy) on NH debut 111 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with big step forward required.

Timeform
Fairly useful form when landing bumper at Stratford in 2019 but off the track since. Goes over hurdles now with his fitness a big concern. Market should prove a good indicator.

125/1
Little show in two bumpers before pulled up in novice (200/1) at Taunton (19f) on hurdles bow 11 days ago. Has lots to find.
|
Timeform
Yet to make the frame all four runs, 28/1 when sixth of 13 in jumpers bumper at Kempton (18f) 53 days ago. Needs more back in this sphere.
|
Timeform
Failed to build on his Exeter hurdling debut fifth when only ninth of 13 in novice at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) 37 days ago. Holds place claims if shrugging off that effort.
|
Timeform
Has offered little on both his runs over hurdles, hooded when thirteenth of 14 in novice (300/1) at Taunton (16.5f) 11 days ago. Very hard to make a case for.

Hinted at ability when (250/1) fifth of 6 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, soft) 24 days ago. Lot more needed though.

Forecasts

Dorking Lad (2/7), Noble Savage (9/2), Goudhurst Star (6/1), Sixty Dollars More (15/2), Get Up Them Steps (17/2), Mr Sociable (125/1), Eairsidh (125/1), Little Miss Alice (200/1), Yashims Girl (250/1)

Verdict

DORKING LAD has posted some fairly useful placed efforts this term and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to open his account. Goudhurst Star was very green when sixth in a Warwick bumper so Harry Fry's hurdling debutant looks the one to chase him home with Sixty Dollars More appealing as the pick of the remainder.

  1. DORKING LAD
  2. GOUDHURST STAR (IRE)
  3. SIXTY DOLLARS MORE (FR)
