Amenon⁸⁸⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 124

3/1

Fair maiden hurdler, twice runner-up at Dieppe in 2018/19. Has shown fairly useful form over fences subsequently and should have more to offer having joined top yard, despite long absence.

Form: F4F335/

Getastar²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

33/1

Modest in bumpers and considerately handled when a well-beaten fifth on Fontwell hurdles bow/return 26 days ago. Most likely one for handicaps later on.

Form: 3349-5

Getmegold³¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: T Scudamore| T: C L Tizzard

7/1

€20,000 Getaway gelding. In frame in 2 points and was much improved from hurdling bow when a keeping-on third in a 19.8f novice at Wincanton in December. Off since but should have more to offer.

Form: 34/63-

Jazz King²⁸⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Jordan Nailor⁽³⁾| T: S Thomas| BF

3/1

Showed a fair level of ability in a brace of bumpers last term, debut effort solid form, and is bred to have a future over hurdles. Yard also back among the winners.

Form: 42-

Jet Of Magic²²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Craig Nichol| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| D

8/1

Justified good support to make a winning bumper debut at Punchestown in March. Left Denis Paul Murphy for £75,000 later that month and merits respect now going hurdling for upwardly-mobile yard.

Form: 1-

Monbeg Genius³⁸⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill

6/1

€45,000 3-y-o, £80,000 4-y-o, Shantou gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Last Minute Man. Second of 2 finishers in Irish point on debut (Oct 2020). Market can guide on this switch to Rules.

Form: 2-

Not Long Now¹⁹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams

11/1

Flemensfirth gelding who found only a fairly useful one with experience too good in a Huntingdon bumper on debut in April. Goes hurdling for new handler now up in trip and can't be discounted.

Form: 2-

Tigers Roar¹⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

10/1

Finished only midfield on Punchestown hurdle debut in February, but he's won his sole start in points subsequently. First run for new yard.

Form: 9-1

Money Spinner

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones| T: P Hobbs & J White

10/1

Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam (c74/h114), bumper/2½m-3m hurdle winner, half-sister to very smart hurdler/winning chaser (stayed 3m) Sam Spinner. Yard's newcomer warrant respect.

Form:

Forecasts

Jazz King (3/1), Amenon (3/1), Monbeg Genius (6/1), Getmegold (7/1), Jet Of Magic (8/1), Money Spinner (10/1), Tigers Roar (10/1), Not Long Now (11/1), Getastar (33/1), Aeronisi (150/1)

With the Sam Thomas stable beginning to click into gear again, JAZZ KING could be the answer on this switch to hurdling having shown plenty in a brace of bumpers last season (debut form solid). Not Long Now, Jet of Magic and Amenon are a trio of others to note in an opening-looking maiden hurdle featuring some good yards.
