Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: G Hanmer| D

1/1

Posted good third on NH bow at Tipperary in spring and improved on that when making a successful debut for new yard in Stratford bumper in July. Could well be up to defying a penalty.

Form: UPF3-31

100/1

Harzand gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including modest hurdler Zabeel Star. Dam, 1m-1¼m winner, half-sister to useful hurdler (2m winner) Buckwheat. Yard has a low strike rate in bumpers.

6/1

Promising sort who wasn't seen to best effect when eighth of 16 in bumper at Huntingdon (15.8f, good) on NH debut 147 days ago, having hopeless task from position. May well do better.

Form: 8

Showed promise in a couple of bumpers earlier this year and looks the type to do better this season.

Form: 49-

Got A Dream

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: James Bowen| T: Nicky Martin

10/1

€35,000 3-y-o, Getaway gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdle winner/chaser Routine Excellence. Worth a second look in the market on debut.

Form:

Grand Geste

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Ross Chapman| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

66/1

£13,000 3-y-o, Cloudings gelding. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 29f) Band of Blood. Likely a longer-term prospect.

Form:

Out Out

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

4/1

Getaway gelding. Dam 2m/17f hurdle winner, also 1½m winner on Flat. Must be taken seriously on debut.

Form:

Mareska

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: James Davies| T: I Mohammed & J Santos

25/1

Caravaggio filly. Half-sister to 8.3f/9f winner Taraashoq. Dam unraced. Rare runner for yard in this discipline and needs monitoring in the market.

Forecasts

Minella Rescue (1/1), Out Out (4/1), Gentleman Jacques (5/1), Youlneverwalkalone (6/1), Got A Dream (10/1), Diamond Dealer (16/1), Mareska (25/1), Grand Geste (66/1), Nineelmspark (100/1), Master Of All (250/1)

MINELLA RESCUE justified support when running out an impressive winner at Stratford in July and could have more to offer yet. He can follow up. Youlneverwalkalone looks the likeliest danger on form, whilst Out Out could be the pick of the newcomers.
