Injured Jockeys Fund Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

No impact in an Exeter bumper in January.

Placed all 3 starts in bumpers in 2020 but disappointed on hurdles bow in November of that year. After missing 2021, much more like it with a couple of runner-up efforts this term and he just about sets the standard.

Runner-up sole start in Irish points and made a promising start when third of 8 in novice hurdle at Sandown this month. Didn't really build on that over C&D 10 days and he may need a little more time.

Travelled well when third in 2 bumpers in the autumn and promise without threatening first 2 starts over hurdles. Yet to be asked for effort when stumbling and unseating rider 4 out at Ludlow latest. Remains open to progress.

Fetched £62,000 after finishing second in a maiden point last month. Half-brother to a bumper/hurdles winner but tongue tied and shaped as though amiss in a course bumper 10 days ago. Turned out pretty quickly now hurdling.

Fair form when placed both starts over hurdles in France in 2020/21. Claimed for €13,006 but must have had share of issues given he was off the track for best part of 2 years. Shaped as though retaining some ability at Wincanton last month and this will reveal more.

Modest in bumpers and shaped with a little encouragement making hurdling bow at Fontwell in January. Left Joe Tizzard after and well held at Chepstow.

Half-brother to 3 winners, including winning hurdler/useful chaser Secret Reprieve and fair hurdler/chaser The Composeur. Encouraging debut fourth of 13 in a bumper at Chepstow in November but opening effort over hurdles at that venue a month later was hardly brimming with promise.

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 and no impact switched to timber upped to 21.8f 3 weeks ago.
