Dual winning pointer but went with no promise on belated hurles debut a month ago (2m). Upped significantly in trip.

2/9
Modest in bumpers but bred to do better over obstacles and much more like it when runner-up in a brace of events at Doncaster in recent months. Well worth a go at htis trip and the one to beat.

Gained plenty of experience in bumpers for Gavin Cromwell but little to shout about over hurdles for this yard. Significantly up in trip.

7/2
Winning pointer who showed fair form in bumpers, again bumping into a nice prospect when runner-up at Sedgefield on Boxing Day. Not at that level on hurdles bow but capable of better up in trip.

50/1
Efforts in handicaps over fences not devoid of promise at a lowly level but looks up against it.

Made the frame in bumpers and on second start in this sphere, third of 5 in novice at Bangor (19.6f, heavy, 28/1) 34 days ago. Others more appealing.

Forecasts

Godrevy Point (2/9), Bolintlea (7/2), Rachel Louise (14/1), Kind Witness (50/1), Blue Heather (80/1), Thebellsofshandon (125/1), Culverwell (200/1)

Verdict

GODREVY POINT cemented a very positive start to his hurdles career when runner-up for the second time at Doncaster, and with his attitude likely to stand him in good stead, this looks a really good opening upped in trip. Bolintlea failed to meet expectations on hurdles debut but she will improve and is the obvious one for the forecast.
