Modest form in Ireland, including only mid-field in a couple of handicaps, but worth monitoring in the betting on this first outing for Stuart Coltherd after 7 months off.

Placed on the first of 2 starts in bumpers and fair form when fourth in maidens at Sedgefield and Doncaster on his completed starts over hurdles. Steps up in trip for handicap debut. Interesting contender.

Fair form when second in 2m Worcester novice on stable debut in October. Not in quite the same form when fourth on Wincanton handicap debut since but remains unexposed now stepping up in trip. Has stamina in his pedigree.

Has improved since switched to handicaps, completing a double at this Kelso with something to spare a month ago. More to come and should go well on hat-trick bid.

Won 3 times over fences at around 2½m last winter. Found 2m a barely adequate test when third back over hurdles at Hexham on reappearance and this return to further could see him in a better light.

Remains a maiden after 18 starts but he has had a consistent spell lately, reaching the frame for the fifth start in succession when third of 8 at Uttoxeter 3 weeks ago.

Has hinted at ability but his handicap debut/reappearance at Kelso last month was uninspiring.

Poor form, although latest C&D third of 7 shows he can be competitive from his basement mark. 3 lb out of the handicap here.

Forecasts

Eloi Du Puy (3/1), Bushmill Boy (10/3), R S Ambush (7/2), Easter Junction (4/1), Lisloran (9/1), Boyneside (12/1), Broadford Publican (18/1), Bollin Matilda (28/1)

Verdict

ELOI DU PUY has had the form of his latest Kelso win boosted by the runner-up going in since so a further 5 lb rise may not prevent him completing a hat-trick. The unexposed Easter Junction is a potentially dangerous opponent for the Donald McCain team. R S Ambush is another who hasn't got many miles on the clock.

  1. Eloi Du Puy3/1
  2. Easter Junction4/1
  3. R S Ambush7/2
