Dream Boy⁶⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: W Coltherd

9/2

€1,500 3-y-o, Yorgunnabelucky gelding. Dam modest 2½m chase winner (stayed 3¼m). Successful on last of 3 starts in Irish points (Apr 21). One to consider.

Form: 5/P1-

Jingle Jangle Jet³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby

16/1

Half-brother to a winner over jumps and showed something to work on when fourth at Market Rasen a a month ago. Should do better.

Form: 4

The Scan Man⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Abbie McCain⁽⁵⁾| T: D McCain Jnr

15/2

Doyen gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Couleur France. Unplaced in a point bumper but represents a good stable and makes appeal on pedigree.

Form: 6-

J C International

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: B S Hughes| T: R Fell & S Murray

7/2

£4,500 3-y-o, Nayef gelding. Dam 1¼m winner in France. Should have enough speed, so worth supporting with Brian Hughes up.

Form:

Tineggiori⁸⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford

9/4

Only seventh of 8 at Wetherby on debut 80 days ago but shaped as if the experience would bring him forward, so not without a chance.

Form: 7-

Solway Staree¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Thomas Dowson| T: Miss L Harrison

66/1

Little show in bumpers at Perth 8 months apart and looks set for another struggle.

Form: 8-4

Anny Mcphee

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Bruce Lynn⁽³⁾| T: K Scott

28/1

Garswood filly. Sister to 1¼m winner Mc'ted. Dam 9.5f-11.6f winner. Bred to have enough speed for this sort of test but stable not renwowned for debut winners.

Form:

Marlins Darlin³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Joshua Thompson⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Micky Hammond

28/1

Related to a bumper winner but not much encouragement at Market Rasen a month ago.

Form: 5

Rory's Story^h1,t1³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Harry Reed| T: T Davidson

10/1

Workforce filly. Dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 3¼m) Macgeorge. Pulled up sole start in Irish points (May 21). Wears tongue strap.

Form: P

Take It Upstairs³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: T D Easterby| D

6/1

Won a point bumper but couldn't make an impact at Aintree on debut. Might step forward on that, so not a forlorn hope.

Form: 21-8

Forecasts

Tineggiori (9/4), J C International (7/2), Dream Boy (9/2), Take It Upstairs (6/1), The Scan Man (15/2), Rory's Story (10/1), Jingle Jangle Jet (16/1), Marlins Darlin (28/1), Anny Mcphee (28/1), Solway Staree (66/1)

J C INTERNATIONAL is bred to be well equipped for bumpers and the booking of Brian Hughes looks notable on debut, so he gets the nod ahead of point-winner Dream Boy. The Scan Man is another Rules newcomer worthy of consideration, and the market should be informative.
