Pull Again Green²²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien

9/2

Ex-pointer who made a winning Rules debut in a Wexford bumper for Harley Dunne 7 months off. Has subsequently joined a top British yard, so warrants respect under a penalty.

Form: P6F1-

Spidersteve³⁵⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: J M Quinlan| T: M Appleby

125/1

Down the field at Stratford on debut 11 months ago. Makes no appeal.

Form: 8-

Abuffalosoldier

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex

9/2

Mahler gelding. Dam, placed in point, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stays 3m) Gone Platinum. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.

Form:

Captain Claude

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Rex Dingle| T: A J Honeyball

3/1

Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Flinck, stays 29f, and fairly useful hurdler Casper King. Of obvious interest on debut.

Form:

Dream In The Park¹⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: J R Wildman⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Miss E C Lavelle

5/2

Out of a bumper winner, runner-up in an Irish point, and represents a stable that's hit the ground running this season, so looks an obvious player on Rules bow.

Form: 2

Fiddledi Dee⁶⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: James Best| T: M Keighley

200/1

Dunaden gelding who didn't offer much at Worcester on debut a couple of months ago. Unlikely to feature.

Form: 8

Induro De Fontaine¹⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Nick Scholfield| T: L Allan

66/1

Flat-bred gelding who only hinted at ability at Market Rasen on debut 5 months ago. Hard to see him making an impact.

Form: 7

Larusso²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds

7/1

Well related and left debut form well behind when runner-up at Stratford in September. Respectable third there next time but he's vulnerable to above-average newcomers.

Form: 0-23

Steal My Sunshine

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Bridget Andrews| T: D Skelton

12/1

£15,000 3-y-o, Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Dam (h97), bumper/2m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stays 2½m) General Custard. One to note on debut.

Form:

Tango Pete¹⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: David Bass| T: H Chisman| D

40/1

£800 3-y-o, Norse Dancer gelding. Dam (c101/h112), ungenuine 2m-19f hurdle winner (stayed 3m), closely related to smart hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 2½m) Polar Prospect. Hard to fancy.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Dream In The Park (5/2), Captain Claude (3/1), Pull Again Green (9/2), Abuffalosoldier (9/2), Larusso (7/1), Steal My Sunshine (12/1), Tango Pete (40/1), Induro De Fontaine (66/1), Spidersteve (125/1), Fiddledi Dee (200/1)

DREAM IN THE PARK showed plenty when second between the flags and his new stable has been in good order lately, so he's fancied to make a winning Rules debut with the added benefit of a 10-lb claimer on board. Captain Claude should be ready, so he's a definite threat, while Pull Again Green appeals as the pick of those with bumper form.
