Bohemond Antioch⁷²

7/1

Achieved little better than modest form when second and fourth in bumpers before Christmas and vulnerable to newcomers with potential.

Form: 24

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: J J Burke| T: F O'Brien

7/2

Dariyan gelding. Half-brother to 6 winners, including bumper winner Mazyad. Dam 1½m winner who stayed 1¾m. Likely type on paper for a yard which does well in bumpers.

Form:

Emerald Warrior

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: D Elsworth & R Hatch

13/8

£45,000 Elusive Pimpernel gelding. The betting should help guide to expectations with this newcomer.

Form:

Forthfactor

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones| T: T H Weston

5/1

Wings of Eagles gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser who became ungenuine (stayed 29f) Capard King. His trainer has tasted some success in bumpers this season so a market move would be interesting.

Form:

Our Super Six

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: S Bowen| T: M Keighley

6/1

This Frankel gelding was picked up unraced out of the Owen Burrows for 20,000 gns last year. It'll be interesting to see what the betting makes of him.

Form:

Deauville Lady

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Lorcan Murtagh| T: N J Hawke

33/1

Scalo filly. Dam (c129/h123) 2m-23f hurdle/chase winner, also 1m winner who stayed 1¼m on Flat. Would be a rare bumper winner for the stable.

Form:

Pearl Smoke

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

10/1

Dartmouth filly. Sister to 3m chase winner Pearl Island. The stable won this race in 2022 and she's another for whom the market will provide more clues.

Form:

Rule 4

Rule 4 applies to board prices only - deduction 25p in the pound

Forecasts

Emerald Warrior (13/8), Hay Macleod (5/2), Donttellyamumjack (7/2), Forthfactor (5/1), Our Super Six (6/1), Bohemond Antioch (7/1), Pearl Smoke (10/1), Deauville Lady (33/1)

The suggestion is Alan King's HAY MACLEOD before any betting clues are known. Donttellyamumjack is another obvious one for a stable which gets plenty of bumper winners, while a market move for Forthfactor would be interesting given Tom Weston has done well in similar races this season.
