Minella Trump²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 135| D

6/5

Absolutely thriving and arrives on a 6-timer (4 wins over fences) having made all at Sedgefield 3 weeks ago. Excellent claims again off the same mark.

Form: 2-11111

Fifty Ball²³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 135| C

3/1

Dual French bumper winner who was most progressive over hurdles, finding only Soaring Glory too strong in the Betfair Hurdle. Excuses in County Hurdle final start and will make a chaser.

Form: 321120-

Sending Love^t²⁰⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 131| D

12/1

Lightly-raced hurdler who picked up a maiden and novice last season. Opening mark looks high enough on those efforts but will make a chaser (easily won sole start in Irish points).

Form: P/13741-

Fugitives Drift¹⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR: 129| D

12/1

Useful winning hurdler around 2m4f last winter but below par in the spring. However, made a positive start over fences when making all in maiden at Cartmel and open to improvement back from a break.

Form: 10653-1

Mahler's Promise¹³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: T J O'Brien| T: J W Mullins| OR: 127

9/1

Bit of mixed record over hurdles but made promising start to chase career when second at Worcester and duly built on that when following up at Newton Abbot in June. Looks open to further improvement.

Form: FP0-521

Son Of Camas¹⁸⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 127WS

11/1

Bumper/hurdles winner in 2019/2020 but hasn't convinced in 3 tries over fences at Kempton, shaping like a horse with problems. Off 6 months.

Form: P/P304-4

O Connell Street^p,t³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: S Bowen| T: G Elliott| OR: 126| D

14/1

Taken well to fences and career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Perth (20.1f, good to soft), cruising clear. Shaped better than the result suggests at Gowran since and remains of interest.

Form: 3-51215

Forecasts

Minella Trump (6/5), Fifty Ball (3/1), Mahler's Promise (9/1), Son Of Camas (11/1), Sending Love (12/1), Fugitives Drift (12/1), O Connell Street (14/1)

The thriving MINELLA TRUMP completed a 5-timer (last 4 over fences) off this mark at Sedgefield 3 weeks ago so holds obvious claims at a track which should suit his style. Fifty Ball progressed into a smart hurdler last season and should make a chaser, while O Connell Street is worth another chance to confirm the form of his easy Perth win.
