4/7

Created very favourable impression when a decisive bumper winner at Newton Abbot a year ago, then runner-up at Cheltenham. Highly tried both hurdles starts and since moved to Alan King.

€30,000 3-y-o: half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Today Please (2m/17f winner, by Westerner). Dam placed 5 times on Flat in Germany. Maiden Irish pointer, third last time (Nov 2020).

Hermes Bellevue^h1²⁷⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Harry Cobden| T: P F Nicholls

11/4

Fair form over hurdles, better effort in juveniles in France when 4¾ lengths third of 11 at Pau in January. Has left A. Chaille-Chaille and having joined a top yard, he will improve further. Hooded.

5/1

£35,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam bumper/2½m winner. All the rage in the market but failed to meet expectations when mid-field in a bumper in April. Yard in really good form.

HERMES BELLEVUE offered plenty in a couple of juvenile contests at Pau in January, and given the yard he has now joined, improvement should be forthcoming. Grandeur d'Ame was a good bumper horse for Oliver Sherwood and is sure to do better at some point over hurdles.
