10/1

Third sole start in Irish points and better effort in bumpers when fourth at Worcester 13 days ago. Can better that.

Form: 38/4

Fan Magnet³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: S R B Crawford

6/1

In the process of showing something (would have finished) when unseating at Bangor first time out. Likely to have benefited from that experience and is likely to make an impact.

Form: U

Jehol De Thaix

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards

5/2

£23,000 3-y-o, Masked Marvel gelding. Dam maiden chaser in France. Half-sister to dam of smart hurdler/chaser up to 3m Volnay de Thaix. Worth a chance to make a winning start.

Form:

Jour D'orage

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: James Best| T: Simon Earle

17/2

Great Pretender gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fairly useful French chaser Top Secret and fairly useful chaser in France Bandit d'Ainay, stays 2¾m. Dam unraced. Likely to need time.

Form:

Castadrift⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson

14/1

€36,000 3-y-o, Pillar Coral gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Twominutes Turkish and modest hurdler Flashthelights. Off mark in points at second attempt (May 27). One to consider.

Form: 71

Cloudy View

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Callum Bewley| T: Paul Collins

16/1

Telescope gelding. Dam (h98), maiden hurdler (stayed 2½m), sister to fairly useful 2m hurdle winner Humphrey Bogart. Not an obvious sort on paper.

Form:

Fiskardo

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

2/1

Sholokhov gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 3m) Caracci Apache. Represents an in-form stable and is worthy of interest if strong in the betting.

Form:

Lizzie's Star⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁷⁾| T: J Tickle

33/1

Unplaced on completed start in a point and not all that much encouragement when down the field in a bumper at Worcester on Rules debut 8 days ago.

Form: F69

Silver Pageant³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Paddy Hanlon⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

22/1

Cheap purchase who didn't show all that much when seventh at Southwell first time out. Will need to improve markedly if she's to feature.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Fiskardo (2/1), Jehol De Thaix (5/2), Fan Magnet (6/1), O'Malley (7/1), Jour D'orage (17/2), Ballytechno (10/1), Castadrift (14/1), Drombeg Lad (14/1), Everybodydancenow (14/1), Cloudy View (16/1), Silver Pageant (22/1), Fully Gaden (25/1), Dorans Cross (25/1), Lizzie's Star (33/1)

JEHOL DE THAIX hails from a yard that does well in bumpers and this is a winnable race, so he's preferred to Fiskardo, another interesting newcomer on paper. Fan Magnet should improve from his debut and is arguably the pick of those with experience.
