Useful on Flat (should stay 1½m), has won twice in 2024, respectable effort last time. Stands out in a weak race on hurdling debut.
|
Mahler gelding. Dam (h86), maiden hurdler, winner up to 13f (2-y-o 7f winner) on Flat. Maiden Irish pointer, runner-up last time (Apr 21).
|
A fair performer on the Flat for Lucinda Russell last year but no better than poor form over hurdles for this yard. Passed over again.
|
Fairly useful at best on Flat (stays 1¾m), successful at St Moritz in February for Anthony Charlton. Shaped as if in need of the experience sent hurdling in a tongue strap when fourth of 8 in a novice hurdle (15/2) at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) 26 days ago. Entitled to do better.
|
Useful handicapper at best on Flat (stays 14.5f) but little impact since 2021 and was well held on his hurdling debut back in October 2022.
|
Unplaced in bumpers but showed an aptitude for hurdling when third of 6 in a Market Rasen novice in May. Raced too freely and faltered before straight in similar event at Hexham last time, however.
|
Libertarian gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Longhouse Sale and fairly useful hurdler Long House Island. Wears tongue strap. Market should offer up some clues.
|
Unpromising in bumpers and offered little on last month's hurdling debut at this course.
|
Has shown more temperament than ability in bumpers/over hurdles. Easy to look elsewhere. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.
|
Winning pointer who showed a bit more than on her bumper debut when third of 7 at Kelso in May 2022. Only hinted at ability making her hurdling debut after 25 months off at Hexham in June but this is a weak race all the same.
|
Fair 1¼m winner on Flat for Andrew Balding but well held in a pair of juvenile hurdles for Rebecca Menzies and fared no better back on the Flat for this yard at Redcar 17 days ago.

Forecasts
Aerospace (13/8), Fairmac (11/5), Tamlaght Eyes (6/1), Largy Texas (15/2), Don't Look Back (14/1), Ailt An Chorrain (16/1), Kondo Isami (28/1), Upfordebate (33/1), Brora Breeze (50/1), Easter Glory (80/1), Flexi Lady (125/1)
The one who stands out is AEROSPACE, a useful performer on the Flat, who looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to make a winning hurdling debut. Fairmac and Tamlaght Eyes can battle it out for minor honours.
