Achieved only modest form when third in a pair of bumpers last winter but returned for in-form yard and looked a totally different proposition when making a successful hurdles debut at Exeter a month ago (18.5f). Penalty to carry but there's more to come.

Closely related to a winner on Flat and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Los Banderos. Showed very little in a brace of bumpers, reportedly bled after Huntingdon run in April. Already had 2 breathing operations ahead of hurdles debut but he's certainly in the right hands. Tongue tie on.

£35,000 4-y-o, second foal: dam unraced half-sister to useful chaser (stayed 25f) Burning Ambition. Runner-up only outing in Irish points (May 6).

Little encouragement in a brace of bumpers and as many starts over hurdles.

Had a breathing operation after finishing placed in a bumper on second start in June but failed to repeat that form when fifth back at Worcester in August, hanging left. Hurdles debut up in distance.

Forecasts

Ambion View (1/3), Tinklers Hill (2/1), A Perfect Day (4/1), Dino Magic (8/1), Remember Moi (22/1), Diamond Dusty (200/1)

Verdict

AMBION VIEW left his bumper form trailing in his wake when making a successful hurdles debut at Exeter a month ago and this scopey sort looks up to defying a penalty up in distance. Tinklers Hill has been off the track over a year but he represents a leading yard so he's sure to be well prepared for this and is the obvious danger.
