Arvico gelding. Only hinted at ability in Chepstow bumper/Taunton novice hurdle.
|
Perth bumper winner for Gordon Elliott a year ago but all downhill since, not taking to hurdling.
|
Milan gelding. Dam 3m-27f hurdle/chase winner. 25/1, fourth of 10 in bumper at Worcester (16f, heavy) on NH debut, needing stronger gallop. Off 18 months. Makes hurdles debut.
|
Out of a winning hurdler and showed ability in bumpers. Much better for hurdles bow when third in novice at Huntingdon, not knocked about. Player on that form and has room for improvement in the jumping department.
|
Made successful start himself in 5-runner newcomers bumper at Huntingdon in January 2022 and far from disgraced under a penalty next 2 starts. Showed promise when fourth in a reasonable novice at Sandown on hurdles bow but shaped as if amiss next time. Worth another chance with yard going well.
|
Failed to complete on recent hurdles debut at Taunton and never likely to benefit from a drop in trip when a one-paced fifth in C&D maiden 3 weeks ago.
|
Modest maiden hurdler who has failed to complete last 2 starts.
|
Modest form at best in bumpers/maiden hurdles. Well held on handicap bow at Chepstow in October.
|
Fairly useful performer at best on Flat, stays 1¼m, step back in right direction last time. Makes hurdles debut in a weak event so worth considering.
|
Kayf Tara filly. Dam 2m hurdle winner, also 10.7f-1½m winner on Flat. Attracted some support at long odds but shaped as if amiss when pulled up in bumper at Warwick (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 51 days ago.

Forecasts
Odin's Quest (85/40), Jack Sprat (5/2), Hobb's Delight (6/1), Definite (6/1), Ventara (7/1), Joyful Kit (14/1), Energy Two (33/1), Gun Runner Cash (33/1), Exmoor Lad (40/1), Miss Curiosity (66/1)
A weak maiden so bumper-winner ODIN'S QUEST is worth another chance to confirm hurdles debut promise with his yard in red-hot form. Definite took a step back in the right direction on the Flat 6 weeks ago and can go close if taking to this sphere at the first attempt, so is feared most ahead of Jack Sprat, who stepped up on his hurdles bow when third at Huntingdon.
