Made a positive start in a bumper and backed it up despite jumping poorly when second in a novice at Southwell on hurdling debut. Should be better for that experience and is bred to stay the longer trip.
|
£76,000 recruit from the Irish pointing field who offered plenty to work on when third in a 2m Lingfield novice on his hurdle debut. Not disgraced when third at Windsor next time and longer trip could help.
|
Well beaten in 2 bumpers and on Catterick hurdle debut.
|
Promising type. Evens, respectable second of 13 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) 79 days ago, finishing with running left. Sets a clear standard on the pick of his efforts and should take all the beating in a first-time tongue strap.
|
Runner-up in a point and showed something to work on when third in a bumper at Bangor 15 months ago. Not seen since but step up in trip is in his favour switched to hurdling.
|
Stepped up on previous efforts when fourth of 9 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) 42 days ago. Will need to do better again if he's to make his presence felt in this, though.
|
Shaped like a stayer in a couple of bumpers and was helped by longer trip when runner-up in a Catterick novice on hurdling debut. This demands more, however.
|
Irish bumper winner who was a fair fourth on his 19.5f Huntingdon hurdle debut in October. Shaped as if amiss back there last time so needs to get on track.
|
Cost £48,000 after finishing third in a point in April 2022 but hasn't got to the track much under Rules and failed to see her races out in bumpers. Off another year ahead of this hurdling debut.
|
Won a point but didn't offer much at Hexham last month on hurdling bow.

Forecasts
Juventus De Brion (4/9), Benmore (5/1), French Emperor (6/1), King Of Answers (10/1), Miami Steve (14/1), The Gray Ghost (28/1), Norah's Legacy (33/1), Worth The Walk (125/1), Alltheroadrunning (150/1), Frontier Force (300/1)
JUVENTUS DE BRION stands out on form and shaped better than the result when runner-up at Chepstow last time, so he's hard to take on here. Benmore has more to offer and French Emperor isn't without hope.
