Carrigmoorna Rowan^t1⁷⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: J J Burke| T: H Fry| OR: 116

7/4

Off mark in Irish points at second attempt and shaped with promise on the first of 2 outings in bumpers. Has also showed ability plenty of ability over hurdles and, while a bit underwhelming at Exeter last time, he sets the standard.

Form: 1/36-363

Hartington⁸⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard

18/1

Signs of ability in bumpers but will probably come on for this initial experience of hurdling, so others are more persuasive.

Form: 45

Hope Hill²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Nick Scholfield| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

300/1

Well beaten in bumpers and yet to show much over hurdles.

Form: 678P

80/1

Form: 21

Jukebox Fury⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson

16/1

Related to several winners but offered nothing when pulled up at Doncaster on hurdling debut 49 days ago. Could show more after a break.

Form: P

Kaltender^t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy

100/1

No encouragement at first attempt over hurdles at Southwell but he is at least bred to do better.

Form: 3

Land Genie^t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 109

9/2

Half-brother to Constitution Hill who made a winning start to his career in Huntingdon bumper last spring. Ran with promise in a couple of completed outings novice hurdles this term, so makes the shortlist.

Form: 1-23F

Looking Splendid³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Edward Austin⁽⁵⁾| T: H Graham & G Rutherford

125/1

Didn't show much in bumpers and only fifth in a novice at Kelso on hurdling debut. More one for handicaps.

Form: 500-5

Lord Warburton¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: M E Sowersby

300/1

Modest at best on Flat (stays 1½m) and, having left Mark Campion, showed nothing over C&D on hurdling debut 10 days ago.

Form: 6

Madra Morjohn¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Harry Bannister| T: P Taylor

300/1

No promise as yet over hurdles.

Form: 0-P9

New Order^t1⁷⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: G Sheehan| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 110

9/4

Got off the mark in Irish points at second attempt and posted a promising second of 10 in novice hurdle at Lingfield. Yet to build on that and but return to this distance should help.

Form: 31-234

Rumoursareflying²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Paul O'Brien| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 104

9/2

Down the field in bumpers but has run to a fair level over hurdles, again runner-up in a 9-runner contest at Fakenham last time. One to consider.

Form: 0-84422

Scottish King⁴⁵¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: R J Armson

300/1

€1,000 3-y-o, Imperial Monarch gelding. Half-brother to a point winner. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Mahlers Dollar. Maiden pointer, unplaced last time (Jan 2023).

Form: 36/45-

Cloneyhurke Maid³³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: Henry Brooke| T: H McMahon

300/1

Made the frame both completed starts in Irish points a few years ago but offered little on recent Ayr hurdle debut after a long absence.

Form: F42/6

Forecasts

Carrigmoorna Rowan (7/4), New Order (9/4), Rumoursareflying (9/2), Land Genie (9/2), Jukebox Fury (16/1), Hartington (18/1), Jingle Du Gouet (80/1), Kaltender (100/1), Looking Splendid (125/1), Bombay Sunset (150/1), Scottish King (300/1), Hope Hill (300/1), Madra Morjohn (300/1), Lord Warburton (300/1), Cloneyhurke Maid (300/1)

CARRIGMOORNA ROWAN shaped with plenty of encouragement on his first two starts over hurdles and his latest effort is best excused, so he's worth chancing to open his account in this sphere at the possible expense of New Order. Land Genie is likely to be on the premises, too.
