Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

11/2

Useful Flat winner who came in seventh in listed race at Goodwood (9.9f) when last seen out 6 months ago for Roger Varian. Brings lots of potential to hurdling for his new yard.

Form:

Hansard²⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| D

10/1

Fairly useful ex-Irish bumper winner for Charles O'Brien. Since changed hands for 48,000 euros so he's one to consider on his hurdles debut for his new yard.

150/1

Poor hurdler who was pulled up in novice hurdle (40/1) at Hereford (16.2f) 19 days ago. A fair bumper winner but he is hard to warm to.

Form: 0178-3P

80/1

Had a wind op before posting encouraging eighth of 15 in novice (25/1) at Exeter (16.7f) on hurdles bow 20 days ago, not knocked about. Should progress.

11/1

Useful 1m Flat winner at his best but he came in last of 9 in handicap at Leicester (10f) 61 days ago. Goes hurdling and has the potential to do well if getting back on track.

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds

40/1

Fair 10f Flat winner for Rod Millman this autumn. Changed hands for 17,000 gns so he's one to consider on his debut in this sphere for his new handler.

Form:

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

10/11

Forecasts

School Days Over (10/11), Treyarnon Bay (5/1), Father Of Jazz (11/2), Big Jim Beam (11/2), Hansard (10/1), Kenzai Warrior (11/1), Izayte (28/1), Pride Of Hawridge (40/1), Hungry Hill (80/1), Herecomesfreddie (150/1), Lookingdandy (200/1), Ruby's Pearl (200/1), Celestial Park (200/1), Vissani (200/1), Calcutta Dream (200/1), Hunsbury (250/1)

Lots of potential on show here, not least Fergal O'Brien's newcomer SCHOOL DAYS OVER who caught the eye when runner-up in a recent Cheltenham bumper and can go one better now starting out in this sphere. Fellow hurdling newcomers Hansard and Father of Jazz both look likely sorts too so must enter calculations along with Treyarnon Bay and Izayte.
