Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Selling Hurdle

Off time: 13:46 | Winning time: 3m 53.71s

Whitlock^p¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: James Bowen| T: A Irvine| OR: 99| BF| CD

25/1

Useful in his pomp on the Flat and put it all together to get off mark over hurdles in a C&D handicap for Nicky Henderson in May. Failed to beat a rival in 3 outings since, including for this yard.

Form: 8010-10

Cheat¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Sean Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 70

100/1

Successful twice on the Flat (both on AW), but he has shown very little since switched to hurdles for present yard.

Form: 78P880

Greek Kodiac^t³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: M L W Bell

9/1

Fair Flat winner (stays 10f) doubling tally for this yard in August. Shaped as though amiss on previous start hurdling in August 2020 and this will reveal a lot more.

Form: 0-

Jumping Jack^p¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Kimber⁽⁷⁾| T: P Butler| OR: 75| CD

50/1

Fairly useful handicap hurdler at best but little to shout about for some time now.

Form: 8P-7U98

Karakoram^p,t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Ben Jones| T: G Harris| OR: 85| D

2/1

Losing run dates back to 2019 but dropped a long way in the weights and a trio of in-frame efforts in handicaps last month confirm he's back in good nick.

Form: 877-424

Vision Clear^b¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 95| D

10/11

Out of sorts over hurdles earlier this season but fit from the Flat, he offered a lot more when second of 7 at Fakenham 3 weeks ago. Blinkers replace cheekpieces and he looks the one to beat.

Form: P5-5042

Dolly McQueen^t¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: David Bass| T: F Brennan| OR: 80

7/1

Has just a fibresand Flat maiden win to her name and just a fair start for current yard in recent weeks in low-grade contests.

Form: 265247

Forecasts

Vision Clear (10/11), Karakoram (2/1), Dolly McQueen (7/1), Greek Kodiac (9/1), Whitlock (25/1), Jumping Jack (50/1), Cheat (100/1)

VISION CLEAR served notice that he's back in good nick when runner-up at Fakenham 3 weeks ago and dropped in class, he should take some stopping. It will be interesting to see what Andy Irvine can do with Whitlock, while Greek Kodiac ought to be a factor at this level given his Flat form.
