Horse A-Z
Pulled up sole start between the flags in April. Given a considerate introduction when a remote fourth in October 2022 and off the track since. Hood on and returns with yard among the winners.

Half-brother to a couple of winning hurdlers and won by a wide margin on the second of his 2 runs between the flags. Positive start to Rules career when second at Market Rasen 3 weeks ago but bare form is ordinary.

€8,000 3-y-o, £50,000 4-y-o, Berkshire gelding. Dam bumper winner (stayed 23f). Won Irish point in March and ran to a high figure for one beaten in a bumper when second at Chepstow a month ago. One to take seriously switched to hurdling.

Bought for €105,000 after going down by a nose on hurdling debut in France and promising third in Aintree listed event on first run for new yard in December. No show in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham but back on track when runner-up at Newbury in March. Disappointing on return but he's in the right hands.

Hooded and positives to draw from his bumper/maiden hurdle runs this autumn but he could be one for further down the line.

Sister to bumper winner/useful 2¾m hurdle winner Shannon Royale. Minor promise on second of 2 starts in bumpers back in the spring for Georgina Nicholls and never dangerous hurdling for new yard.

Forecasts

Jordans Cross (6/4), Le Fauve (13/8), Law Of The Sea (5/1), Sun Art (6/1), Inishnabro (15/2), Baseline (18/1), Shan't Wait (18/1), Tigers Moon (66/1), Classical Sting (80/1), Alexandra Larose (100/1)

Verdict

Having won an Irish point, JORDANS CROSS showed plenty to work on when second in a Chepstow bumper a month ago and he's the most appealing option now hurdling. Le Fauve is a huge threat on the pick of last season's form, with Law of The Sea the type to go on improving over obstacles.
