Winner of an Irish maiden point in October. Didn't shape at all badly when fourth of 12 on Rules debut in a bumper at Wincanton (15.3f, soft) last month and he has to enter calculations.
|
While his introduction in an Exeter bumper (16.8f, heavy) in February was not completely devoid of promise, a considerable step forward will be needed if he's to emerge on top here.
|
Half-brother to 2 winners on the Flat, including French 9.5f-1½m winner Snap Call. Probably best watched on debut, unless the betting suggests otherwise.
|
Yeats gelding. Dam, lightly raced over hurdles, was a 1½m winner on Flat. Hails from a respected yard and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say.
|
Offered something to work on when third on debut in a 7-runner Warwick bumper (2m, heavy) in January. Better ground here may help and he's certainly one to consider. Tongue strap added.
|
Limited appeal on paper and the fact that he sports cheekpieces on debut is rather disconcerting.
|
Showed a bit more than on his debut when third of 6 at Wincanton on latest start in December. However, he was still beaten 14 lengths and another sizeable step forward will be needed here.
|
Silver Frost gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful French hurdler/chaser Lolla Belle. Very much a likely-looking type for top yard and it will look significant if the market speaks in his favour.
|
No appeal on paper and she's best watched on this occasion.
|
No impact in a couple of Exeter bumpers so far and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.
|
Pedigree is hardly compelling and it'd be a surprise to see her make a winning debut.
|
Well beaten in 2 starts 7 months apart and she looks set for another struggle.

Forecasts
Hard Frost (5/2), Storm Lord (11/4), Ted's Friend (10/3), Flamenco De Kerser (11/2), Battle March (18/1), All Hope No Scope (20/1), Mojito Royale (22/1), Leader Of The Band (25/1), Good Greef (33/1), Mollyvico (50/1), Owenriff Pearl (100/1), Otter Lynn (100/1)
Paul Nicholls is operating at a 29% strike rate in bumpers this season and saddles HARD FROST, a likely-looking newcomer for whom market support would look highly significant. If he fails to deliver, it's likely that either Ted's Friend or Flamenco De Kerser will step up to the plate, with the former marginally preferred of that duo. That said, Storm Lord is another newcomer of note.
- HARD FROST (FR)
- TED'S FRIEND (IRE)
- FLAMENCO DE KERSER (FR)
