4/5
Hooded when 28/1 winner of 10-runner bumper at Roscommon on debut in September for Kieran Purcell. Changed hands for £85,000 and followed up with the hood left off on Musselburgh hurdling debut (17.4f) 53 days ago, forging clear. Sure to progress and win more races.

9/2
Modest hurdler. Creditable fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (20.1f, soft, 11/2) 22 days ago. More needed back in novice company.

Court Cave gelding. Dam winning pointer/ran once over fences. Doesn't make a great deal of appeal on paper but is in good hands.

Showed fair form when in the frame on all 3 starts in bumpers but looks more one for handicaps in this sphere over further after this run.

Well held in a brace of bumpers and tailed off in minor events/handicap on Flat. Tongue tied for hurdling debut and easy to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Quaresome (4/5), Special Rate (9/4), Five Dollar Fine (9/2), Summergrounds (14/1), Nab Wood (28/1), Monty Nevett (66/1), Rouse (66/1), Garswood Lady (250/1)

Verdict

There's surely more to come from QUARESOME, who didn't look the finished article when forging clear on his Musselburgh hurdling/stable debut, so he's taken to defy a penalty. Special Rate looks the obvious threat following an improved effort on his hurdling debut at Kelso. Five Dollar Fine may prove best of the rest.
