In a first-time tongue strap, was in the process of showing improved form when unseating his rider in a 2m maiden at Listowel in June. Has left Stephen Gerard Carey and not ruled out back up in trip.

Showed more than first time up in bumpers when second in 9-runner event at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) in March. Goes hurdling now up in trip and needs considering for yard among the winners.

€26,000 buy out of a hurdle winner but looks one for later on under Rules judged on Perth hurdling debut in the spring.

Well held in a brace of bumpers but showed more sent hurdling when fifth in a 16.2f novice at Hexham in June. Step up in trip should suit but needs more to make a serious impact.

Forecasts

Gredin (5/2), Operation Overlord (7/2), Bak Rocky (11/2), Release The Kraken (11/2), Whelans Bridge (6/1), Phil De Pail (17/2), The Great Houdini (10/1), Paddy The Horse (11/1), K C Bailey (25/1), Choctaw Brave (66/1), Jinkaman (150/1)

Verdict

BAK ROCKY was in the process of showing improved form when departing at the last at Listowel in June, and now back up in trip for his new handler, he could have more to offer. Gredin is a respected Rules newcomer for Donald McCain, while Release The Kraken and Operation Overlord are others with claims.
