Belpasso

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M & D Easterby

11/8

£20,000 3-y-o, Passing Glance gelding. Half-brother to dual bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Moon Chime. One to take seriously on debut if the market vibes are positive.

Form:

Gallant Approach³⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: H Morrison

9/2

Well held pitched into a listed even on debut but showed more 11 months later when sixth of 14 in bumper (6/1) at Lingfield (16f, standard). Off a further 12 months.

Form: 0/6-

Noble George

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish

10/3

Order of St George gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Fin And Game, stayed 19f, and bumper winner/fair hurdler Nell's Bells. In-form yard not really known for success in bumpers.

Form:

Lady Kluck⁵⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D Skelton

5/1

£75,000 4-y-o, Walk In The Park filly. Closely related to modest 2¾m hurdle winner Famous Function, and half-sister to 2 winners, including fair hurdler/chaser Shirocco's Dream. Successful sole start in Irish points and better than result on bumper debut in October, set a lot to do. Lots to like.

Form: 13

Lady Risky^h1²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: R Menzies

66/1

Half-sister to 3 winners but made no impression on last month's debut at Carlisle. Hood applied.

Forecasts

Belpasso (11/8), Dunaird (9/4), Noble George (10/3), Gallant Approach (9/2), Lady Kluck (5/1), Arnie (8/1), Lady Risky (66/1)

Not a strong bumper, so point-winner LADY KLUCK may well get it right this time having shaped well from an unpromising position at Ludlow in October. Newcomer Belpasso is interesting.
