13/2

£150,000 4-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Finished runner-up sole start in Irish points and showed plenty sent hurdling when third in a Warwick novice (19f) 19 days ago. Entitled to build on that run here and he's worth considering.

Form: 2-3

Itsnoteasy⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

11/2

£100,000 5-y-o, Ocovango gelding. Easily off mark in Irish points at fourth attempt (May 7) but shaped as if better for the run when fifth of 11 in a C&D maiden on hurdles debut 7 weeks ago. Improvement likely.

Form: 352-15

Micro Millions²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

2/1

£40,000 5-y-o. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (Apr 2). 6/1, promising start over hurdles when third of 15 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) on NH debut 26 days ago. In good hands and entitled to build on that here.

Form: P1-3

Wexford Park¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: K Brogan| T: G Hanmer

150/1

£36,000 buy after finishing in the money on both starts in Irish points earlier this year. Well beaten only start in bumpers and shaped like a dour stayer when fourth of 7 in an Aintree novice hurdle (20f, heavy) 2 weeks back. One for longer trips/later on.

Form: 33-84

Ten Lengths Tom²²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey

6/4

Fairly useful in bumpers (successful on second of 2 starts) last term but shaped as if in need of initial experience when sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at Ascot (15.7f) 3 weeks ago. This ought to reveal good deal more.

Form: 21-6

Tough Approach³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Nick Scholfield| T: D Pipe

14/1

Runner-up sole start in Irish points in March and showed plenty to work on when third in a bumper at Newton Abbot last month. No reason why he won't make his mark now hurdling and interesting what the market makes of him.

Form: 2-3

Forecasts

Ten Lengths Tom (6/4), Micro Millions (2/1), Itsnoteasy (11/2), Chatshow Tv (13/2), Tough Approach (14/1), Wexford Park (150/1)

A £150,000 purchase from points, CHATSHOW TV shaped with a good deal of promise when third on his hurdles debut at Warwick 3 weeks ago, and with improvement expected, he looks to hold sound claims of coming out on top here. Similar comments apply to Micro Millions and he heads up the dangers. Ten Lengths Tom and Tough Approach are others to be positive about.
