Fair maiden on Flat in France, in frame all 5 starts, stays 1¼m. Left Jean-Claude Rouget's yard for €25,000 in July but offered little on hurdles debut last month.

Fairly useful form on Flat, sold from James Ferguson 20,000 gns in July. Joined another good yard ahead of hurdles bow but showed very little fitted with a tongue tie at Wetherby.

4/1

Fairly useful on Flat (should stay beyond 1½m), won maiden in 2024, shaped as if amiss last time. Sold from Owen Burrows 42,000 gns in July and gelded ahead of hurdles debut. Has the raw ability to play a part.

1/4

Pretty useful on the Flat, getting off the mark in a 7f Brighton maiden in September. Hooded and sound start over hurdles when second at Kempton 18 days ago. Hard to beat.

Forecasts

Usuario Amigo (1/4), See The Green (4/1), Kotgar (18/1), Normandy Legend (25/1), Offiah's Boy (50/1)

Winter ground may pose USUARIO AMIGO a problem later in the season but with this emphasis on speed for now, he can outclass these. See The Green displayed more than enough on the level to make him the chief threat now tackling obstacles.
