Placed multiple times in Irish points but well held twice over hurdles last month. Drops in trip.
|
Getaway gelding who is bred more for stamina than speed and looked badly in need of the experience in a Kelso bumper on debut in May. Should do better in time.
|
€27,000 3-y-o, Joshua Tree gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fair hurdler/chaser Well Done d'Oc. Some promise in bumpers (keen on return) and should do better now hurdling.
|
Good start when third in a big-field 2m maiden hurdle at Gowran in March but always behind on return at Carlisle last month for new trainer.
|
Took another step forward back from 7 months off when second to promising rival in C&D event 3 weeks ago, pulling hard. More to come still if he learns to settle. Key player.
|
Proved a lot more tractable fitted with hood/tongue tie when opening account in Stratford bumper in August. Needs to back that up now hurdling, though his dam made a successful start in this sphere.
|
£40,000 buy who looked a good prospect as he eased his way to a wide-margin success on debut in bumper here in the spring under Brian Hughes. Lots to like.
|
Showed more than first time up over hurdles when last seen in May at Kelso (21f), looking like finishing closer than he did for a long way. Drops back in trip on return.
|
Cost plenty and looked a good prospect as he scored on debut in bumper here a year ago. Shaped as if amiss at Newcastle in March but retains bags of potential now jumping back from wind op.
|
Modest Flat winner who was shaping up nicely until falling last on hurdles bow at Sedgefield last month. Worth a look for new yard (also responsible for The Jad Factor).
|
Well held in bumpers (in Ireland) and Kelso novice hurdle.

Soft Risk (1/2), Muhtamar (6/1), Travail D'Orfevre (7/1), The Jad Factor (11/1), Domandlouis (18/1), Enemy At The Gate (20/1), Well Planted (22/1), Limerick Leader (28/1), Moonacura (28/1), Wotsmyname (33/1), Scots Poet (40/1), Choctaw Brave (150/1)
SOFT RISK looked a good prospect as he ran out an easy winner of a bumper here on debut in May and can make the perfect start over hurdles. Muhtamar, a good second over C&D 3 weeks ago, could be the danger if he settles better, with Well Planted also worth a look for a new stable.
