Off time: 14:03 | Winning time: 4m 31.09s

Beowulf²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: James Bowen| T: M L W Bell

3/1

Fair on Flat, stays 1¼m, not seen to best effect last time. Sold from Ed Walker 34,000 gns in October and joined another predominantly Flat yard.

Form:

Boulette^h1,t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: David Noonan| T: N J Hawke| BF

12/1

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 13f) for Jim Bolger. Definite promise when just touched off on yard/hurdles bow at Worcester (2m) in September but disappointing at Ludlow since. Hood goes on.

Form: 25

Hayedo¹³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cheesman⁽⁵⁾| T: G & J Moore

9/1

Fairly useful maiden on Flat (ran 4 times), stays 11f. Left E. Monfort after latest start, then gelded ahead of this hurdles debut.

Form:

Largo Bay¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Kimber⁽⁷⁾| T: M Madgwick

66/1

Fair on Flat, stays 1½m, creditable second last time. Lacks the class of a couple of these now hurdling with usual headgear off.

Form:

Morani Kali²²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J M Quinlan| T: Martin Smith

250/1

Poor maiden on balance of form on Flat and didn't show anything starting out in this discipline last month.

Form: 7

Moulins Clermont²¹⁶

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

1/1

Third in minor event at Compiegne (3¼ lengths behind Tanganyika) on hurdling debut. Has left B. Lefevre and joined in-form yard. Good jumps pedigree and he should improve.

Form: 3-

Pride Of Nepal²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Rex Dingle| T: J Scott

28/1

Fair maiden on Flat, stays 1½m, possibly unsuited by conditions when mid-field last time. Hurdles debut.

Form:

Rhebus Road²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J J Burke| T: O Sherwood

14/1

Fairly useful Flat performer who signed off for Ralph Beckett with success at Newmarket in September. Pitched in quite deep on hurdles debut and displayed clear aptitude for it at Kempton.

Form: 4

The Yellow Mini^b¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: C J Todd⁽³⁾| T: M Wigham| OR: 89| CD

6/1

Has found her niche over hurdles, successful on debut at Fontwell last month prior to a pair of solid runner-up efforts. Latest Fakenham run does confirm she is vulnerable at his level.

Form: 1223

Undercover Agent^b²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Fergus Gillard⁽³⁾| T: Mark Gillard

250/1

No promise in 4 outings.

Form: 6

Cirrus^t⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: M F HarrisWS

20/1

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 8.5f). Stamina far from guaranteed and reportedly suffered breathing problem on hurdles debut over C&D. No surprise he's had a wind op since.

Form: 3

Sly Madam⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: M Goldstein| T: Miss S West

150/1

Poor maiden on the Flat for Mick Channon who has also displayed signs of temperament. Too free on hurdles bow at Stratford.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Moulins Clermont (1/1), Beowulf (3/1), The Yellow Mini (6/1), Hayedo (9/1), Boulette (12/1), Rhebus Road (14/1), Cirrus (20/1), Pride Of Nepal (28/1), Largo Bay (66/1), Sly Madam (150/1), Undercover Agent (250/1), Morani Kali (250/1)

MOULINS CLERMONT finished ahead of a couple of next-time-out winners when third on debut at Compiegne in April, and having joined an in-form yard, is very much the one to beat. Rhebus Road is sure to step up on his opening hurdles run, with the The Yellow Mini likely to give her running again.
