Well held on debut in bumper at Wetherby (16f, heavy) 81 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Eagle Top gelding. Dam unraced. Worth a market check for all he doesn't make much appeal on breeding.

Half-sister to a winning hurdler and showed something to work on when runner-up at Wetherby on debut. Should take all the beating.

5/1
18/1, seventh of 11 in bumper at Ayr (16f, soft) on debut 45 days ago. Bred to be a stayer and likely to need more time.

Forecasts

March Wind (6/4), Lunar Chief (9/4), Greenhill Gardens (5/1), Topcliffe Boy (9/1), Air Of Approval (14/1), Happy County (14/1), Knacker Trapper (22/1), Ask My Heather (80/1)

Verdict

MARCH WIND showed enough when second on debut to think she can go one better in what appears to be a thin race. Lunar Chief is the pick of the newcomers.
