25/1

Made a good start for Gary Hanmer, building on his Southwell placed efforts with victory in maiden at same course (20.4f) in May. Shaped better than the bare result under a penalty at Carlisle 5 months later but this looks tougher.

Form: 75/32-14

€58,000 3-y-o, £150,000 4-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to triple bumper winner/very smart hurdler (stayed 3m) Clondaw Warrior. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Nov 2022). Needs a close look in the betting.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: T Gallagher

125/1

Runner-up sole start in Irish points and looked badly in need of the experience switched to hurdles when fourth in 8-runner event at Wincanton 19 days ago. Up in trip.

Form: 2-4

Monbari²²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Miss R Curtis

33/1

No match for the winner when second in a heavy-ground course bumper (2m) on debut in March, but that was an encouraging start to his career nonetheless. Makes hurdling debut in a potentially warm race.

Rockstown Native^t³³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill

13/2

Irish point winner who went the right way from first run to second in bumpers and shaped better still sent hurdling with a tongue strap fitted after 6 months off when second in 6-runner maiden at this course (21f) 33 days ago. Sure to improve.

Form: 4142-2

Tarras Wood³¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Cobden| T: P F NichollsWS

10/3

Kayf Tara gelding from the family of Best Mate and overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in 14-runner bumper at Wetherby in December. Good prospect for hurdling. Has had a breathing op.

Form: 1-

Jingko Blue²⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson

4/7

£225,000 4-y-o, Great Pretender gelding. Brother to fair French chaser Ikero Blue, and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Fil d'Ariane. Dam made frame both starts over hurdles in France. Won sole start in Irish points in February and of obvious interest on Rules debut for top yard.

Form: 1-

Personal Ambition²³³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Kielan Woods| T: B PaulingWS

12/1

€65,000 3-y-o, Sandmason gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdler Masons Daughter, and half-brother to 2 winners, including useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser Roseys Hollow. Third sole start in Irish points (Mar 19). Interesting Rules newcomer. Has had a breathing op.

Form: 3-

Prolific Profile²³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: G Sheehan| T: Katy Price

100/1

Bought for £50,000 after finishing third on the second of 2 starts in Irish points and showed something to work on when fifth in 8-runner novice at Ffos Las 23 days ago. Probably one for later on.

Form: 6-335

Caught A Vibe¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Christian Williams

400/1

Placed on 2 of 3 starts in Irish points but well held in pair of novice hurdles.

Forecasts

Jingko Blue (4/7), Tarras Wood (10/3), Rockstown Native (13/2), Pep Talking (10/1), Personal Ambition (12/1), Chatshow Tv (20/1), Cabhfuilfungi (25/1), Monbari (33/1), Prolific Profile (100/1), Grass's Jet (125/1), Letmetellusomethin (125/1), Haafbourd (400/1), Caught A Vibe (400/1)

JINGKO BLUE was bought for big money after winning his sole outing in Irish points and, having joined a top yard, he makes plenty of appeal on his Rules debut. Tarras Wood looked potentially smart in overcoming inexperience to land a Wetherby bumper back in December, so is a very interesting hurdling debutant, while Rockstown Native made a promising start in this sphere here last month and seems sure to improve.
