Fontwell bumper winner who has acquitted himself fairly well in a trio of starts over hurdles, creditable third in 21.6f Ascot handicap on latest start in November. Tongue strap added.
|
Fair on the Flat and bettered previous 2 efforts in this sphere when third of 10 in a Huntingdon novice (15.8f) last month. Still, another step forward needed if he's to play a leading role in this.
|
Just minor promise so far and he makes limited appeal.
|
Two-time winner on the Flat in France and has found just one too good on each of his 2 starts over hurdles, latterly in a soft-ground Fakenham maiden (2m). Another bold show anticipated.
|
Stepped up on previous efforts when second of 9 on handicap debut over 23f at Lingfield in November 2020. However, no show at Taunton the following month and absent since.
|
Successful twice on the level in Ireland. Long absence to overcome, but stamina shouldn't be a problem now hurdling for new yard and worth a second look.
|
Runner-up on sole completed start between the flags last spring, but offered little on recent hurdles debut for new connections at Newbury.
|
Winner of sole point start and placed on 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles last term. Hasn't shown much switched to fences this time round, but couldn't rule out back in this sphere.
|
Has failed to make an impact under Rules so far and it's hard to envisage him taking a hand in the finish here.
|
Related to winners and displayed ability when third twice in bumpers this winter. Should have a future over hurdles given her pedigree and has to enter calculations.
|
Poor maiden on Flat and recent hurdles debut was devoid of promise.
|
Fairly useful on the Flat for Roger Charlton, winner of 1½m Newbury handicap last summer. Sold for 52,000 gns in October and, having shaped well on recent hurdles debut, he's high on the shortlist.

Forecasts
Baddesley (7/4), Saligo Bay (9/4), High Tech (3/1), Sublime Heights (10/1), Major Reward (18/1), Sallyann (20/1), Gold Souk (28/1), Storm Hill (40/1), Lakeside Lad (80/1), Hesbehindyou (100/1), Iconic Mover (150/1), Tommy Dillion (200/1)
There were positives to glean from SALIGO BAY's recent hurdles debut at Newbury, the venue where he landed a handicap on the Flat for Roger Charlton last year, and he is taken to build on that promise here. High Tech looks sure to win a race in this sphere before long, a remark which also applies to Baddesley. They rate the main dangers, although Sublime Heights also has claims back hurdling.
