30/100

Flemensfirth gelding who overcame inexperience to win a strong C&D bumper on debut in December, running green but asserting final 1f. Rates a useful prospect and sound claims under a penalty.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

7/2

Placed in Irish points and again showed fairly useful form when neck second to another Dan Skelton in-mate over C&D last month, edged out final 100 yds. Rates a live player.

Form: 43-762

Saint Patric²⁷⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Charlotte Jones⁽⁵⁾| T: James Moffatt

12/1

Half-brother to bumper winner/fair hurdler Lady Bowes. Midfield first 2 starts in bumpers early last year and best effort yet when third at Perth (16.2f) in June. However, needs to step up again now.

Grey Dawning (30/100), Royal Mogul (7/2), Langdale Lane (11/2), Saint Patric (12/1)

GREY DAWNING looked a useful prospect when accounting for a host of previous winners on debut over C&D in December, running green but asserting final 1f. Open to improvement, he can defy a penalty. Royal Mogul, who finished runner-up in a C&D event last month, can pose the chief threat.
