Fetched £85,000 after finishing runner-up on sole point start last spring and bolted up on third run under Rules in an Exeter maiden hurdle (21.6f, heavy) in January. Impossible to oppose in this company.

Modest in bumpers and showed aptitude for hurdling when third of 9 in a novice event at Wincanton. Not quite as good at Sandown last time and essentially has plenty to find with the favourite.

6/1
Fetched £180,000 after winning an Irish point but proved very easy to back and looked as if in need of the run when down the field in an Aintree novice hurdle in October. Best watched for new yard.

Forecasts

Largy Poet (1/6), Simple Getaway (6/1), Kingoftheswingerz (16/1)

Verdict

LARGY POET appeals as a useful prospect and sets a clear standard in this 3-runner event. Kingoftheswingerz will be of more interest when qualified for handicaps after this outing, whilst it's hard to know what to expect from Irish point winner Simple Getaway, who has switched yards since his underwhelming Rules debut.
