Well held all 4 starts in bumpers last season and hasn't fared any better in a couple of novice hurdles since returning to action last month.
|
Left debut form well behind when runner-up in a Kelso bumper in May. Performed to a similar level when third in a 4-runner affair at Perth (16.2f, good) the following month and worth considering now upped in trip for this hurdles bow.
|
Pulled up both starts between the flags and the outcome was the same on Rules debut in a Navan maiden hurdle for Colin McBratney last November. Hard to recommend on debut for new yard.
|
Winless following half-a-dozen runs between the flags and form on the Flat was modest. Stepped up on his low-key hurdles debut effort when third of 8 in a C&D novice (soft) last week, but it's hard to envisage him reversing placings with the runner-up that day, Toscan Genius.
|
Didn't show a great deal in bumpers at Wetherby and Carlisle last winter, and sizeable step forward needed now switched to hurdles following a 9-month absence.
|
Little impact in a couple of Irish bumpers last year, but he found just one too good in a maiden point during the spring. Tongue strap enlisted on this hurdles debut for in-form new yard and he's one to note in the betting.
|
Decisive winner of a Newcastle handicap on the Flat in September and produced a decent first effort in this sphere when runner-up over C&D 7 days ago. Entitled to come on for that and he's the one to beat.
|
Runner-up on the first of his 2 starts in maiden points during the spring. Since joined a respected yard and it will look significant if the market speaks in his favour ahead of this hurdles debut.
|
Half-brother to a winning pointer and won his sole start between the flags in February. Interesting to see which way he goes in the betting starting out under Rules here.
|
Failed to threaten in 7 starts between the flags and opposable starting out under Rules here.

Forecasts
Electric Jet (15/8), Let's Go Joe (7/2), Toscan Genius (4/1), Workhardplayhard (9/2), Fly Awhile Johnny (9/1), Breizh River (11/1), Walk My Way (40/1), Hubbel Bubbel (80/1), Flashy Dude (80/1), Ask My Heather (300/1)
ELECTRIC JET showed enough in a couple of maiden points to make him of significant interest now hurdling for the Charlie Longsdon yard, and the hint should be taken if the market vibes surrounding this 4-y-o are upbeat. Toscan Genius shouldn't have too much trouble picking up a race in this sphere judged on his C&D effort last week and he is a much-respected main danger. Let's Go Joe and Workhardplayhard are others to consider, along with Breizh River.
