Winning pointer who improved further to follow up his Ludlow win in a 5-runner novice hurdle at Warwick (21f) 17 days ago, staying on well. Respected in his bid for the hat-trick back down in trip.

5/4
Improved further to get off the mark over hurdles in a first-time tongue tie at Down Royal in March. Turned over at short odds since but bumped into one and can resume winning ways here.

Kayf Tara gelding out of a mare from a good family. Has shown fair form in bumpers and should have a future over hurdles.

Modest maiden on Flat, best effort over 1½m last time. Would be an unlikely winner on hurdle debut.

Forecasts

The Wrekin (1/1), Homme D'Un Soir (5/4), Socks Off (10/1), Northern Falcon (12/1), Taramanda (33/1), Get The Facts (33/1), Strict Order (50/1), Tartan Cookie (66/1), K C Bailey (80/1), Brave Bairn (100/1), Uknowmymeaning (150/1)

Verdict

HOMME D'UN SOIR was unlucky to bump into one at Kilbeggan last month and this looks a good opportunity for him to resume winning ways. The Wrekin has got a likeable way of going about things and should ensure the selection doesn't have things all his own way, though.

  1. HOMME D'UN SOIR (FR)
  2. THE WREKIN (IRE)
  3. NORTHERN FALCON
