Runner-up to a smart prospect on sole start in Irish points and shaped with plenty of promise when filling same spot in a Newbury bumper (16.3f) on Rules debut in March. Interesting hurdling debutant.

Half-brother to useful hurdler/high-class chaser Black Corton and looked a good prospect himself when making a winning bumper debut at Worcester. Below expectations in a listed event at Ascot 2 months later but still highly respected on hurdles debut/return.

Much improved from debut when runner-up at Exeter in January, pulling well clear of the remainder. Too keen over C&D on final start but can't be ruled out on hurdles debut/return.

Dunaden gelding. Dam 2m4f hurdles winner. Hinted at ability in a Wincanton bumper on debut in March but needs plenty more now switching to hurdling after 7 months off.

Forecasts

Collectors Item (11/8), Hugos New Horse (6/4), Marty Byrde (9/2), Jet Marshall (12/1), Diamond River (14/1), Getaway Tom (16/1), Gladiatus (25/1), Tonto Foley (28/1), Alkhattaaf (33/1), Weaver's Answer (50/1), Prince Ali (66/1), Separate Ways (80/1), Dan Daly (125/1)

Verdict

COLLECTORS ITEM chased home a promising sort on his only start in Irish points and was unlucky to bump into another in a Newbury bumper back in March, so he makes plenty of appeal on this switch to hurdling. Hugos New Horse and Marty Byrde rate the main threats.
