Bardenstown Lad^p⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Ben Harvey⁽⁵⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 140| BF

2/1

Useful hurdler last season winning 4 times prior to an excellent third in the Albert Bartlett at the Festival in March. Has yet to reach same level in 2 starts over fences this term but he now gets a crack at handicaps.

Form: 113F-53

Git Maker²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 122| BF

8/13

Point winner who was three from four over hurdles and solid start over fences, rallying when again finding only one too good at Kelso (23.4f) 4 weeks ago. Expected to be firmly in the mix once more.

Form: 1141-22

Tupelo Mississippi³³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: Ross Chapman| T: B Ellison| OR: 115

8/1

Dual bumper/maiden hurdle winner who showed promise on chase debut last winter. Not at that level either outing thereafter but not one to write off back from a break, despite operating from out of the weights.

Form: 333/2P6-

Thunderosa^b1,t³

Age: 11| Weight: 10-5| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: J Bedi| OR: 115

28/1

Just the one standout effort over fences so far and, having finished down the field between the flags, offered little at Kelso (26f) 3 days ago, well held early final circuit. Blinkers reached for now.

Form: 3U5-65P

Forecasts

Git Maker (8/13), Bardenstown Lad (2/1), Conquredalofeurope (5/1), Tupelo Mississippi (8/1), Thunderosa (28/1)

A multiple winner over hurdles, GIT MAKER has made a solid start over fences, again finding only one too good at Kelso 4 weeks ago, and he looks the most solid proposition. Bardenstown Lad has yet to reach the level of form he displayed over hurdles in this sphere but it's too soon to write him off.
