Bushmill Boy^p⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁷⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 79

12/1

Established as a very modest handicap hurdler but did at least run to form in a 2m contest here last week. Back up in trip.

Form: F47-534

Foxwood⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Danny McMenamin| T: G Bewley

40/1

Found only one too good in a Catterick bumper on debut in February but little to shout about since, failing to take to hurdling so far.

Form: 26-F9

Imperial Data³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: R Menzies

11/4

Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser (2m winner) Rindoon. Off mark in Irish points at third attempt in April and produced promising first effort over hurdles when second over C&D a month ago. Big player.

Form: FP1-2

Kopa Kilana^t¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁷⁾| T: M A Barnes| OR: 97

9/1

Bumper winner but yet to surpass modest form over hurdles, never dangerous switched to handicap company at Market Rasen 16 days ago.

Form: 48/5-367

This Is Bob²²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: S Corbett

200/1

Looks limited on early evidence.

Form: 7P-

Monty Nevett⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Henry Brooke| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

6/1

Unplaced in bumpers but more to shout about over hurdles, keeping on for third at a 17f novice at Newcastle last month ago. Looks worth a go at this trip.

Form: 0687-3

Champagnesocialist^p1¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: S Bowen| T: J C McConnell| OR: 106

8/11

Is yet to add to her bumper success but knocking on the door over hurdles, placed all 5 outings at up to 23.6f a fortnight ago. Cheekpieces on and this looks a good opening.

Form: 12223-2

Loose Moose⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: S Mulqueen| T: H Graham & G Rutherford

300/1

Very limited promise in 3 starts.

Form: 0-P0

Thorsda⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Thomas Dowson| T: T Davidson

66/1

Looks a low-grade handicap project over hurdles.

Form: 5787-8

You Say Its Over⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond

50/1

Placed in a couple of points but little to get excited about in a quartet of Irish bumpers for Roger McGrath.

Form: 0036F-3

Champagnesocialist (8/11), Imperial Data (11/4), Monty Nevett (6/1), Kopa Kilana (9/1), Bushmill Boy (12/1), Foxwood (40/1), You Say Its Over (50/1), Thorsda (66/1), Alcantango (150/1), This Is Bob (200/1), Loose Moose (300/1)

CHAMPAGNESOCIALIST has been expensive to follow over hurdles but she sets the clear standard and probably won't get a better chance to shed her maiden status now fitted with cheekpieces. Imperial Data and Monty Nevett can fight it out for minor honours.
