Schiaparelli gelding who made a promising start when winning Fakenham bumper by 7 lengths in November, easing clear. Sets the standard under a penalty.
|
Twice-raced maiden. Better effort when fifth of 13 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, soft, 66/1) 36 days ago, left poorly placed. Can do better still.
|
Indian Haven gelding. Dam (h86), bumper/2¾m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) Magical Legend.
|
€9,500 Sageburg gelding who showed more signs of temperament than ability in bumper at Exeter, virtually refused to race.
|
Touch of Land gelding. Dam, little form on Flat/ran once over hurdles, half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 2½m) Katies Tuitor. Down the field both starts in Irish points (Nov 28 latest).
|
Related to a bumper winner and opened her account at the first time of asking in 7-runner event at Uttoxeter. Struggled stepped up to listed level at Huntingdon since but this easier.
|
Hallowed Crown gelding. 125/1, sixth of 10 in bumper at Ludlow (14f, soft) on NH debut 19 days ago.
|
£15,000 4-y-o, Walk In The Park mare. Dam (h129), 19f-2¾m hurdle winner (stayed 3m), closely related to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 27f) On The Bridge. Stable's first-timers usually supported.
|
Left debut behind when third in bumper at Wincanton, albeit very much having the run of the race. Remains to be seen if he can repeat that.
|
Schiaparelli gelding who shaped like a stayer when third of 6 in bumper at Ffos Las (15.8f, heavy, 3/1) on NH debut 54 days ago.

Forecasts
Gallopade (15/8), Pocket Too (4/1), Horizon Dove (5/1), Bertie Blue (11/2), Presenting Nelly (6/1), Vengeance (11/1), Exmoor Forest (22/1), Lord Bill (66/1), Prince Mtm (100/1), Brucie Bonus (125/1)
GALLOPADE showed plenty of ability when easing clear under this rider at Fakenham on debut in November and is taken to defy a penalty. Horizon Dove hails from a yard that has a good record in bumpers so must be respected, while the other penalised-winner Presenting Nelly will find this easier than the listed event she contested at Huntingdon.
