From a successful jumps family and perfect start in Perth bumper in April. Couldnt' quite back it up at Kelso 5 months later, and has left Gordon Elliott since.

Form: 1-4

12/1

Burwaaz gelding. Dam, ungenuine maiden on Flat, lightly raced over hurdles. Stable does well in this sphere, so he's worth considering.

Borderline⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: James Best| T: M Keighley

7/2

Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Classic Escape. Made a positive start when runner-up in a C&D event 42 days ago, doing his best work at the finish. Worth a chance to go one better.

Form: 2

5/2

€35,000 3-y-o, Kayf Tara gelding. Dam, lightly raced on Flat, half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Toubeera. Fourth of 5 finishers sole start in Irish points (Apr 16). Worth a market check.

Bollin Eric gelding. Dam unraced. Likely to need more time.

3/1

Shirocco gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful 2m hurdle winner/useful chaser (stays 3m) Arctic Skipper. Noteworthy newcomer.

Forecasts

Kayf Legend (5/2), Pappa Rocco Coco (3/1), Midnight Malin (16/5), Borderline (7/2), Benny Silver (5/1), Boris The Animal (12/1), Gun Runner Cash (28/1), My Friend Dixie (33/1)

BORDERLINE showed plenty when runner-up over C&D and he should improve for the experience, so he's worth chancing to open his account at the second attempt despite the presence of some noteworthy newcomers. Benny Silver, Boris The Animal and Pappa Rocco Coco are all of interest first time out.
