Kapgarde gelding. Dam unraced sister to winning hurdler/smart chaser (17f-21f winner) Sidi Bouknadel. Maiden Irish pointer, unplaced last time (April 9). Others appeal more.

Poor form shown in two bumpers and fared no better on her hurdling debut when remote sixth of 8 in novice (50/1) at Southwell (15.8f, good) 15 days ago. Needs a big step forward.

9/2
Fair form in bumpers and in a light campaign over hurdles. Off 27 months before fading fifth of 8 in novice hurdle at Warwick (16f, good to soft, 9/2) 26 days ago. In the mix if backing it up.

7/4
Bumper winner in March 2022. 7/2, shaped encouragingly when fifth of 11 in novice at Cartmel (17.2f, good) on her hurdles bow 10 days ago. Should improve. Player.

Great Pretender mare who had a breathing operation prior to offering little in maiden at Worcester (16f, good to soft) on her hurdling debut 22 days ago. Lots more is required.

Forecasts

Absolute Ruler (5/4), River Of Joy (7/4), Designer Destiny (9/2), Illico Du Breuil (10/1), Film D'action (25/1), Bella Madonna (33/1), Importateur (50/1), The Swede (125/1)

Verdict

ABSOLUTE RULER holds the clear edge on form and is fancied to defy a 7 lb penalty for his recent Huntingdon success and make it 2-3 in this sphere. River of Joy should build on her Cartmel hurdling debut fifth and appeals as the chief threat to Jennie Candlish's mare ahead of the lightly-raced Designer Destiny.
