Well held only start in bumpers yet, following wind op, caused a major shock when scoring on hurdles debut at Lingfield (19.5f) 25 days ago, staying on to lead final strides. Respected with progress anticipated.
|
Modest maiden on the Flat who has finished well held in pair of maiden hurdles in recent weeks.
|
El Salvador gelding. Dam unraced sister to fair hunter chaser (25f winner) Hix Fix. Probably best watched on debut.
|
Showed ability in finishing midfield both starts in bumpers, latterly when fifth of 13 at Newbury (16.3f) 30 days ago. However, not one of the more obvious ones on pedigree/physique now tackling timber.
|
More one for handicaps judged on his efforts at Chepstow and Kempton this autumn.
|
Looked his yard's second string but still showed more than previously when good second behind stablemate in a C&D maiden (19.5f) 15 days ago, staying on dourly. Can do better again for leading stable.
|
Successful at the third attempt in Irish points. Hurdles debut run in October not without hope but failed by a long chalk to build on that at Huntingdon 2 weeks ago.
|
Down the field in a Newbury bumper back in March. Passed over on return now hurdling.
|
Looked a stayer in the making in a couple of bumpers last winter and no immediate promise in this sphere when tenth of 16 in a C&D maiden 39 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time.
|
Fair form in bumpers last season and promise amidst inexperience when second on return/hurdles debut in an Exeter novice (16.7f) 19 days ago, pulling long way clear of rest. Longer trip promises to suit and claims with progress likely.
|
£95,000 4-y-o, Buck's Boum gelding. Successful sole start in Irish points (Mar 4). Showed ability when second of 6 in bumper at Sedgefield (16.8f) in October. Longer trip should suit him now hurdling and worth noting if the market spoke in his favour.
|
Passing Glance half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Midnight Midge. Well beaten only start in bumpers and struggling when unseating 3 out on hurdles bow at Warwick in April. Best watched starting out for new yard.
|
Sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Yalltari. Placed in 2 of her 3 bumpers and offered something to work on when fifth of 10 on her C&D hurdles debut in March. Should be more to come from her but handicaps in due course likely to be more her bag.

RANGE produced a promising debut effort over hurdles amidst inexperience when second at Exeter 3 weeks ago and, with improvement anticipated now stepping up in trip, he earns the vote to go one place better. Hurricane Danny and Theyseekhimthere head up the dangers.
