Showed ability when fourth of 12 in a bumper at Kelso and probably needed the run starting out over hurdles here 8 months on.

Point winner impressive when making his second start in bumpers a successful one at Wexford 3 weeks ago. Should have a decent future over jumps.

Went with little immediate encouragement for bumpers at Haydock at the end of last year but bred to do better now jumping up in trip.

Expensive as a store (out of Grade 1 winning mare) and improved when winning Doncaster bumper when last seen in February. Smashing looker sure to have a good future over jumps for new yard.

Promising start in Hexham bumper in the spring, essentially beaten by lack of experience. Sold from Toby Lawes £35,000 in May and should make his mark over jumps like his brother, the fairly useful hurdler Bertie Blue.

Point winner who was third in a 19f Cork bumper for John Gleeson and has shown a bit in a couple of novice hurdles in the North this autumn. Can do better when handicapping.

From a jumping family and placed both starts in Irish points, runner-up latest (Jan 2024). One to consider on hurdles debut.

Third sole start in point bumpers/runner-up sole start in points in early-2024.

Cost a bit and every chance when fell last sole start in Irish points (Dec 2023). One to note on hurdling bow.

Forecasts

Ira Hayes (5/6), Monty Bodkin (15/8), Skuna Bay (10/1), Orkney Blue (14/1), Shadow Chaser (16/1), Dazzlelikethis (22/1), Maggies Boy (33/1), Balking (66/1), Alltalknoaction (66/1), Blue Plan (250/1), Gatsby Blue (250/1)

Verdict

IRA HAYES created a good impression when landing a bumper at Wexford recently and should have a good future over jumps. He gets the vote over the similarly promising Monty Bodkin, who won a Doncaster bumper for Ben Pauling when last seen in February. Orkney Blue also starts out for a new yard and boasts plenty of potential.
