JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle (Registered As The Prestbury Juvenile Hurdle) (Grade 2) (GBB Race)

Off time: 12:32 | Winning time: 3m 59.46s

Caramelised^h1⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR: 125| BF| D

6/1

Promising hurdler who won his first 2 starts in this sphere at Stratford, slamming Addosh under a penalty second occasion. Not seen to best effect behind that one at Market Rasen and headgear on now.

Form: 113

Knight Salute^h²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: P J Brennan| T: M F Harris| OR: 126| D

9/2

Lost his way on the Flat but has taken really well to hurdling for red-hot new yard, winning at Sedgefield and Kempton despite taking strong hold. More to come, not least if he can settle down.

Form: 11

Magistrato³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 131| D

6/4

Chased home Porticello (listed winner since for Gary Moore) in France before making successful start for new yard in Chepstow contest, taking strong hold but jumping well in main. Better to come.

Form: 2-1

Mister Allegro²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Rex Dingle| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 119| D

12/1

Modest on the level but has made a fine start over hurdles, looking a natural as he's scored at Ludlow and Wincanton. More needed again but his jumping will stand him in good stead. Don't dismiss.

Form: 11

Rocky Man³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| D

11/1

Flat winner over 2m in France in April and made a promising start over hurdles for new connections at Chepstow behind Magistrato, probably needing the run and shaping well. Will improve.

Form: 2

Saint Riquier^p¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Ian Williams| OR: 112| BF

50/1

Fair Flat winner in France and shaping up well over hurdles for new yard, jumping better in cheekpieces at Huntingdon last time. Should have more to offer.

Form: 42

Yorksea¹⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

33/1

Fair Flat winner in France (stays 15f). Bought for €32,000. Pitched in deep for hurdles debut but yard always to be feared in these events and have another good 3-y-o in their ranks in Porticello.

Form:

Addosh¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-8| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 108

7/1

Flat winner who quickened up nicely to take Market Rasen event in September and in the process of improving again when unseating 3 out when going well at Wetherby. Likely has more to offer.

Form: 21U

Aliomaana^h¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: M F Harris| OR: 115| BF| D

12/1

Off the mark in Perth maiden in September and ran well conceding 7 lb to very promising winner at Fakenham next time, finishing clear of the rest. 1 of 2 appealing runners for red-hot stable.

Form: 3F12

Forecasts

Magistrato (6/4), Knight Salute (9/2), Caramelised (6/1), Addosh (7/1), Rocky Man (11/1), Aliomaana (12/1), Mister Allegro (12/1), Yorksea (33/1), Saint Riquier (50/1)

A good-looking renewal of this Grade 2 with MAGISTRATO taken to continue his positive start for Paul Nicholls with another victory. He struck at Chepstow last month and the form of his debut second in France received a boost with the winner Porticello going in at the first time of asking for Gary Moore in a listed race at Wetherby. Knight Salute and Mister Allegro are a couple of dangers.
