21/1, fourth in 14-runner listed newcomers race at Auteuil (4½ lengths behind Autocrat, held up and staying on) early in 2019/20, only outing over hurdles. Seems sure to improve for new yard despite the absence and leading claims.

Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, pulled up in bumper at this course (17.1f, good) 27 days ago, tailing off early final circuit.
|
Last of 10 in bumper at Kilbeggan (15.1f, good, 33/1) on NH debut 39 days ago.
|
22/1, eleventh of 14 in bumper at Cork (19f, heavy) 43 days ago.
|
150/1, last of 12 in bumper at Punchestown (16f, heavy) on NH debut 106 days ago.
|
Doyen gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including temperamental but fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Notarfbad and fair 2½m hurdle winner Bowntobebad.
|
Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, eighth of 12 in bumper at Wexford (20f, good to soft) 5 days ago.
|
Seventh of 14 in bumper (33/1) at Killarney (17f, good to soft) on NH debut 14 days ago.
|
Twice-raced maiden. 9/1, fourth of 14 in bumper at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 17 days ago.
|
33/1, sixteenth of 21 in bumper at Punchestown (18f, good to soft) 31 days ago.

Pulled up both starts in points (latest May 1).
|
Arctic Cosmos gelding from the family of fairly useful chaser (2½m/21f winner) Afistfullofpebbles.
|
22/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 11 in bumper at Downpatrick (17.4f, soft) 24 days ago.
|
Second of 13 in bumper at Kilbeggan (15.1f, good, 50/1) on NH debut 39 days ago for Prunella Dobbs. Clear shout with improvement likely.
|
Mahler mare. Dam placed in bumper, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Atlantic Gold.
|
Twice-raced maiden. First run since leaving Darren Bunyan when sixth of 12 in bumper at this course (15.6f, good to soft, 17/2) 52 days ago. Looking a doubtful stayer.

Forecasts
Aime Desjy (4/6), Maidenstreetprince (13/2), Mister Beeton (17/2), Blossom De Mai (9/1), Gallant Flame (11/1), Up And Out (12/1), Desertmore House (20/1), Le Fanu (28/1), Bessy Bradley (33/1), Rock Sunday (33/1), Righteous Ruane (50/1), Tomas O Maille (66/1), Glanaree (100/1), Carraig Gorm (150/1), Gainstown (200/1), Arnegleggn (250/1)
AIME DESJY is the obvious port of call despite his mammoth absence. He showed plenty first time up over hurdles in France in September 2019 and should be a banker for a bumper like this for his new yard if all is well. Blossom de Mai is a big player for new connections herself after a good start at Kilbeggan, while Gallant Flame is a newcomer to keep an eye on.
