3/1
Debut C&D winner in October and took his form up a level when second of 9 in novice hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, heavy) 52 days ago. A likely player once more.

1/4
Useful bumper scorer who made a highly promising start in this sphere when landing 11-runner novice at Ffos Las (15.8f, heavy) 29 days ago. An exciting prospect and the one to beat.

Clovis Du Berlais gelding. Half-brother to modest 2m hurdle winner Flight To Nowhere. Dam winning pointer. The betting can prove a good indicator.

250/1
Modest form at best in bumpers, too free when eleventh of 12 in bumper at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) 65 days ago. Needs to settle now going hurdling.

Offered little only start in bumpers and only minor promise when sixth of 11 in novice at Worcester (2m, heavy) on hurdles bow in October. Much more is needed.

7,000 gns 6-y-o, Soldier of Fortune mare. Half-sister to 2 winners, including fair hurdler Piper Hill. Prolific winning pointer so no forlorn hope on her belated hurdling bow.

Forecasts

Juby Ball (1/4), Ben Solo (3/1), Mini Fortune (16/1), Luna De Castana (20/1), Welcheston Warrier (28/1), Ballymena Boy (40/1), Midnight View (50/1), Benignitas (125/1), Clever Relation (125/1), Elvis Du Berlais (125/1), Chateau Du Lys (200/1), Stinginhisstep (250/1)

Verdict

JUBY BALL created a fine impression when going in at the first time of asking over hurdles at Ffos Las and is fancied to make light of a 7 lb penalty. C&D winner Ben Solo appeals as the one to chase home Evan Williams' exciting prospect, with Luna de Castana and Ballymena Boy the pick of the remainder.

  1. Juby Ball1/4
  2. Ben Solo3/1
  3. Luna De Castana20/1
