Fairly useful on Flat when last seen in 2020, stays 1¾m. Sold from Owen Burrows 40,000 gns and has undergone wind operation. Yard does well with similar types so looks interesting on hurdles debut.

Third of 4 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown on debut in March 2021. Tongue tied and not in the same form at Listowel 3 months later. Since left Martin Brassil and hood reached for.

Fifth in a French bumper in 2020 and very likely needed the run on January's return/stable debut. Quickly left Willie Mullins and tongue tie reached for.

Could manage only a remote fourth in a point bumper and filled that same position on only outing for Paul Robson in a Sedgefield bumper back in September. Best watched on yard/hurdles bow.

£68,000 buy after finishing placed on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Oct 2021). Strong at the finish when making a winning bumper debut at Stratford in March. Good hurdles prospect.

Placed last 3 starts in bumpers (tongue tied) and that is a solid platform now hurdling. Work to do with Ukantango, though.

Forecasts

Ukantango (4/6), Baasem (11/4), Pocket Too (17/2), Colemanstown Lad (14/1), Pavlik (14/1), Hybris (28/1)

Verdict

UKANTANGO was really strong at the finish when making a winning bumper debut in March and on that evidence is a well-above average hurdles prospect. Baasem was pretty talented on the Flat and while he lacks a run is sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut.
