Off time: 17:23 | Winning time: 4m 3.4s

Andy Amo¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: Miss R Curtis

14/1

Brother to fair 2m hurdle winner Valens Bruyee. Placed in bumpers at Chepstow and over this C&D but the early indications are that he lacks the required pace to win a race of this type and is probably more one for the longer term.

Form: 33

As Legends Have It³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| BF

6/5

Third both starts in Irish points last spring 2023 and made a promising start under Rules when finding just one too good in a 7-runner bumper at Stratford (16.3f, heavy). Obvious claims.

Form: 33-2

Boyles Hill⁶⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Miss Eleanor Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams

11/1

Fetched £17,500 after landing a maiden point at the second attempt in February. Market should point the way in terms of expectations surrounding him on this hurdles debut.

Form: 21

Johnny Boy

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams

6/1

Out of a 17f/19f. hurdle/chase winner in France, herself a sister to French hurdler/chaser (2¼m-21f winner) Still Loving You and French hurdler/chaser (2m-2¼m winner) Toi Et Le Soleil. Interesting to see which way he goes in the betting.

Form:

Mulinas³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr D Maxwell⁽³⁾| T: P F Nicholls| BF

2/1

£170,000 4-y-o who was a winner of his sole start between the flags and went down narrowly when second in a 4-runner bumper at Chepstow (2m, heavy) on Rules debut last month. Major player.

Form: 12

Lake's Aventurine³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Benjamin Poste| T: H Dickin

50/1

Half-sister to 3 winners, including fairly useful French 2m/2¼m hurdle winner Lake's Maker. Showed some ability when fourth of 13 on debut in a Hereford bumper (16.2f, soft) but will need to step up on that if she's to take this.

Form: 4

Non-Runners

Alexandra Larose³⁶

Weight: 10-3| Age: 4

Forecasts

As Legends Have It (6/5), Mulinas (2/1), Johnny Boy (6/1), Boyles Hill (11/1), Andy Amo (14/1), Alexandra Larose (25/1), Lake's Aventurine (50/1)

It's likely that AS LEGENDS HAVE IT and Mulinas will come to the fore in this bumper. They both hit the crossbar on their respective Rules debuts at Stratford and Chepstow, and the former is marginally preferred. Newcomer Johnny Boy will be of interest if the market vibes are positive, while point winner Boyles Hill is by no means ruled out.
