Bayonetta²³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: B S Hughes| T: Gerald Quinn| OR: 100| D

11/2

Maiden hurdler but went close a couple of times and this winning pointer goes chasing in weak race with Brian Hughes booked.

Form: 2021P2-

Colonel Whizz²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 93

3/1

Placed a few times over hurdles in 2023/24 but well beaten on return from a year off both starts last season. Makes chase debut.

Form: 2373/4P-

Master Bricklayer^p⁶⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Bruce Lynn| T: N W Alexander| OR: 92| BF

15/2

Maiden hurdler who has an unconvincing profile, so needs the switch to chasing to have a positive effect.

Form: 924/P3P-

Carnet De Stage^t⁴¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-1| J: Alan Doyle⁽⁵⁾| T: A B Hamilton| OR: 87| D

18/1

Fair hurdler/chaser at best in Ireland but has offered nothing in 3 starts for current yard. Tongue strap back on.

Form: 425P05-

Wotsmyname^p²²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: Sean Quinlan| T: L Kerr| OR: 75

10/3

Placed a couple of times at Ayr earlier this year and back to form from out of the weights when fourth at Kelso 3 weeks ago. Record now stands at 0-23 overall but he's capable off this mark.

Form: 32P5P4-

Watchoutitscookie²³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Lorcan Murtagh| T: N J Hawke| OR: 73

10/3

Landed a gamble when making all at Newcastle in December but has followed that with a string of below-par efforts. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 5165F0-

Fathers Advice⁶⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: R M Smith| OR: 72

9/1

Remains a maiden after 31 runs. Latest fourth of 16 over hurdles at Ayr was one of his better efforts, however, so not without hope. 2 lb out of handicap.

Forecasts

Colonel Whizz (3/1), Watchoutitscookie (10/3), Wotsmyname (10/3), Bayonetta (11/2), Master Bricklayer (15/2), Fathers Advice (9/1), Carnet De Stage (18/1)

A chance is taken on Irish-raider BAYONETTA, who is fit from points and makes her chase debut in a weak race. Long-standing maiden Wotsmyname is handicapped to go close so is next best.
