Fair hurdler who is going the right way at present, improving again to land a novice at Worcester a fortnight ago. Has to give weight to one with more potential, but should give a good account.
|
Point winner who showed ability in bumpers and created a big impression when making a successful hurdling debut at Kilbeggan a month ago. Sets the standard with loads more to come, so obvious choice.
|
Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 10.5f), below form final start in 2023. Has left David O'Meara ahead of this hurdling debut and worthy of a market check after 8 months off.
|
Failed to complete both starts in points and yet to offer much encouragement under Rules.
|
Off mark in Irish points at sixth attempt and bettered hurdling debut when fourth at Kelso last time, finishing with more to give. Type to do better at some point.
|
Fair performer on the Flat (stays 1½m) for Archie Watson and showed some promise at Sedgefield on hurdling debut. Tame display at Doncaster next time and has been off for 5 months since.
|
Modest form in bumpers and, while he's bred to make a hurdler, he's likely to be outclassed on this first attempt at it.
|
Irish point winner but has shaped like a stayer so far over hurdles and this test will likely prove inadequate again.
|
Showed a bit on bumper debut in January but not in the same form a month later and left the impression that this sort of test isn't sufficient when third of 6 at Market Rasen on hurdling debut. Others preferred.
|
Out of a winning hurdler/chaser and offered plenty of encouragement when third at Musselburgh on debut. Failed to build on that and will probably have an educational start to his hurdling career.
|
Well held in 2 bumpers and hard to fancy on her first go in this discipline.
|
From quite a good family but there wasn't enough encouragement in her bumper debut at Kelso to make her of interest in the short term.
|
Out of a winning pointer and hinted at ability when fifth in a novice here on hurdling debut. Looks more of a long-term project, though.
|
Runner-up in an Irish point but only modest form so far over hurdles. Has joined a top British yard now but she'll probably be more interesting once qualified for a mark.

Forecasts
If You Let Me (4/6), Shengai Enki (2/1), Auld Toon Loon (10/1), Famous Liss (16/1), Stylish Recruit (20/1), What A Flirth (25/1), Yakaleo (40/1), Mafia Power (50/1), Westerdale (80/1), Away She Goes (100/1), Dear Dot (100/1), Fairly Fulling (100/1), Upfordebate (100/1), Stonegate (150/1)
IF YOU LET ME was highly impressive at Kilbeggan on hurdling debut and this race is weaker, so he's well fancied to follow up at the likely expense of Shengai Enki, who arrives on a hat-trick.
- Shengai Enki2/1
- Auld Toon Loon10/1
