Fairly useful bumper winner who showed plenty when runner-up first 2 outings over hurdles. Failed to capitalise on what had looked a very good opportunity at Fontwell in February but made no mistake at Wincanton when last seen in April. Should be in the mix under a penalty on reappearance.
|
Debut bumper winner who also made a successful start over hurdles (fitted with a hood) in 4-runner novice at Aintree in May. Looked slightly more straightforward when following up over C&D and didn't do a lot wrong under a penalty when second at Cartmel in June.
|
Third foal, dam, unraced, closely related to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 2¾m) Changing Times. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 2023) but absent since.
|
Showed promise in a bumper on his debut in February 2023 but has failed to repeat that subsequently, not given a hard time once chance of winning had gone here in May.
|
Modest handicapper at best on Flat (should stay 2m), down the field both starts for current yard. Hurdles debut was hardly brimming with promise.
|
Made the ideal start with his stable going well when landing an 8-runner bumper at Uttoxeter and also ran out a ready winner at Carlisle in April. Pretty useful hurdles prospect so demands serious respect.
|
Backed and shaped encouragingly first time up under a ride of exaggerated patience in Lingfield AW bumper in December. Not in the same form twice since on turf and now goes hurdling on the back of a breathing operation.
|
Successful on his sole outing in points but has displayed more than his share of temperament over hurdles.
|
€95,000 3-y-o, £100,000 4-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding. Brother to fair hurdler Tilly Toughnut. Dam, lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to winning hurdler/top-class chaser (stayed 29f) Sir Rembrandt. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish point but too free on bumper debut in March.
|
Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Itchy Feet (2m-25f winner, by Cima de Triomphe) and French chaser Dakota d'Agrostis (19f winner, by Libourne). Dam unraced. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in points (May 6).
|
€15,000 3-y-o, El Salvador gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful chaser Ingenious Stroke and 2½m chase winner Fit For Fifty. Dam (h86), maiden hurdler, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (2m-3m winner) World Wide Web. Placed all 3 starts in Irish points but may need more time under Rules.
|
£6,000 4-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 29f) Pettifour. Not disgraced both starts in points in spring 2023 but only limited short-term promise on hurdles debut.
|
£10,000 4-y-o, third foal, half-brother to fair 17f hurdle winner Looking For Larry (by Telescope). Dam placed in points. Well-held second on second of 2 outings in points (May 22).
|
Jet Away mare. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful chaser (stayed 21f) Easily Pleased. Wears hood. Low-key debut back in May 2023.

GAMESTERS GUY was talented enough to win a couple of bumpers last season and in receipt of weight from the previous hurdles winners Navajo Indy and Not Now Nathaniel, he looks the way to go.
