Fair efforts on first 2 starts in bumpers before well held on latest outing at Warwick (2m, heavy) on New Year's Eve, though possibly unsuited by conditions. Showed a bit to work on when fifth on hurdles debut at Wetherby and is a likely improver.

Bit disappointing over hurdles so far given his form in bumpers, only sixth when well backed on handicap bow at Ludlow 2 weeks ago, but big shout on his best. Worth another chance.
|
Off the mark in Irish points at the third attempt and displayed plenty of ability on first 2 starts in bumpers. Showed fairly useful form when runner-up on hurdling debut at Taunton (19f, soft) but well held upped in class next 2 outings. Can bounce back here.

Black Sam Bellamy mare who shaped like a stayer when second of 7 in bumper at Fontwell on debut. Well held at Wincanton next time but had excuses. Makes hurdles debut and step up in trip will suit.

Forecasts
Way Out (5/4), Riskintheground (7/4), Much Too Dear (4/1), Sam's Amour (11/1)
RISKINTHEGROUND disappointed when well backed on his handicap bow at Ludlow 2 weeks ago but is worth another chance back in a maiden. All 3 of his rivals are potential threats, headed by Way Out, who's back down in class.
