Bukela^t¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: B Ellison

11/2

Modest Flat maiden attracted support on hurdling debut at Hexham and was yet to be asked for effort when falling 2 out (likely to have finished second). Player.

Fast Forward^p⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

13/8

Has won 2 of last 3 starts on the Flat and pedigree reads well for jumping (out of a half-sister to Early Doors). Yard in good form and he can continue his progress into this new code.

Form:

Ha Long Bay²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: A Keatley

3/1

Fair performer on Flat (won twice in April). Not seen to best effect last time and if reaching a similar level over obstacles he should prove competitive in this.

Form:

Mucuna⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Reed| T: M F Harris

11/4

Modest Flat winner made the perfect start in this code when scoring in 4-runner Aintree juvenile last week. Didn't have much to beat but has at least proven her aptitude for the job.

Poor Flat maiden looks tough to fancy on hurdling debut.

Fast Forward (13/8), Mucuna (11/4), Ha Long Bay (3/1), Bukela (11/2), Shipton Moyne (20/1)

FAST FORWARD has developed into a likeable type at a modest level on the Flat and is fancied to make a winning start over obstacles here. Mucuna won her first hurdles start, whilst Bukela shaped well until falling on his, so they, alongside fair Flat performer Ha Long Bay, make this a competitive race of its type.
