€55,000 half-brother to smart hurdler/useful chaser Ashdale Bob, from a good family. Pitched in deep for debut in the New Year's Day Cheltenham listed bumper and faced with even more of a speed test 4 months on when beaten in messy Market Rasen contest. Tongue tied and probably vulnerable on return.

£25,000 3-y-o, Crystal Ocean gelding. Dam, poor maiden hurdler, closely related to fairly useful hurdle winner/useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Indian Castle.

Modest form in bumpers, staying on again late at Ffos Las when last seen in April. Might be vulnerable to newcomers on reappearance.

£95,000 4-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Ms Agartha Yeats and fair hurdler Bennystiara. Second of 3 in a point. Clear appeal for Dan Skelton.

Frontiersman gelding. Dam 2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to smart chaser (stayed 3¼m) Quite By Chance. Yard in form and also off the mark in bumpers for the autumn. One to consider.

Verdict

This looks ripe for a newcomer, with SOLDIER REEVES preferred to On The Bayou and Idaho Fire before betting clues.
