11/4
Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¼m), again ran creditably when runner-up on final outing. Sold from Kevin Thomas Coleman for 42,000 gns and needs taking seriously having joined a top NH yard. Tongue tied.

8/1
Fairly useful performer on Flat (stays 1½m) who improved rapidly during 20222, gaining seventh career success at Beverley (12f) in August. Below par final start and betting may prove an informative guide now hurdling.

Fair maiden on the Flat for Ralph Beckett (stays 1½m) but tailed off both starts over hurdles.

Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat and made an excellent start when landing an Aintree bumper in November for Richard Bandey. Interesting now starting out over hurdles for new stable.

Fairly useful at best on Flat but ran below that level sent hurdling when sixth of 8 at Ludlow 24 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.

Fairly useful and reliable maiden on Flat for James Ferguson. Having unseated rider after first on his hurdling bow, looked badly in need of the experience when sixth at Wetherby later in December. Improvement required.

28/1
Fair maiden on the Flat (disappointed both starts at 3 yrs) but showed aptitude for hurdling when fourth in a juvenile maiden at Hereford (2m) 26 days ago. Capable of better but it may be handicaps further down the line he makes his mark.

Modest handicapper on Flat who finished well held both starts in juvenile hurdles for Stan Moore in November. Not figured back on Flat for new stable and passed over here.

Forecasts

Elogio (1/1), Allihies (11/4), Planet Legend (5/1), Captain Kane (8/1), Ghasham (16/1), Tropical Talent (28/1), Edinburgh Rock (50/1), Vaxholm (200/1)

Verdict

Those with previous hurdles experience don't set a tall standard and it may pay to take a chance on ALLIHIES. A fairly useful performer on the Flat in Ireland, he starts out for a top yard now tackling timber and it would come as no surprise to see him make his mark. Aintree bumper scorer Elogio is also of interest, while prolific Flat scorer Captain Kane also demands a market check now hurdling.
