Brother to bumper winner and followed suit at the first attempt in 10-runner event at Worcester 44 days ago. Nothing to spare but should have learned from the experience.

Malinas gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) Fingal Bay. Third on completed start in Irish points (Oct 22). Worth a market check.

£175,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Are U Wise To That, and fair hurdler Ardhill. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.

£14,000 3-y-o, Malinas gelding. Half-brother to fair chaser Tractor Fred. Not an obvious sort on paper.

Blue Bresil gelding. Dam fairly useful 12.3f-16.5f winner on Flat. Of obvious interest for top connections on debut.

Forecasts

Regent's Stroll (7/4), Tradecraft (15/8), Wellington Arch (18/5), The Sainted Canary (5/1), Shy Love (6/1), Johns Dream (40/1), Minella Miracle (50/1)

Verdict

TRADECRAFT and Regent's Stroll both represent excellent connections and should be above-average newcomers. Preference is marginally for the former, with Wellington Arch also considered following his winning start at Worcester.
