Hinted at ability in bumpers but well held both starts over hurdles in November. Off 7 months.
|
Maiden pointer, placed last time (May 15).
|
Big player on the pick of his chase form and shaped as if needing the run back hurdling at Market Rasen on return. Cheekpieces back on.
|
Fair hurdler/chaser though not entirely straightforward, hanging right/losing concentration at times at Fontwell latest. Fitting of headgear may help.
|
No promise in points or under Rules. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Gary McGill.
|
Encouraging start when runner-up in Downpatrick maiden hurdle last summer. Efforts for this yard have been no more than fair but made a creditable return when second at Market Rasen. Form pick.
|
Failed to progress in bumpers after a successful debut. Offered something to work on when runner-up on hurdles debut at Southwell but well held at Doncaster 9 months later. Off another 7 months.
|
Not ruled out on the pick of his form though was well held on handicap bow at Fontwell last time, albeit off a stiff opening mark.
|
€4,500 3-y-o, Ocovango mare. Half-sister to fairly-useful hurdler Chesterfield King. Third sole start in Irish points before fifth of 9 in novice hurdle at Worcester on Rules bow. Up in trip.

Forecasts
Wigglesworth (13/8), Rumble B (7/2), Willie Butler (9/2), Lough Har (9/2), Just A Whim (9/1), Funway Monarch (14/1), Natural Look (25/1), Keeper Chris (40/1), Sweet Beat (200/1)
This won't take much winning and WIGGLESWORTH showed enough on his return to action when second at Market Rasen to suggest he can go one better. Lough Har is feared most, especially on chase form, though Rumble B looks the type who could benefit from first-time headgear.
