Born Like Me⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Jack Power⁽⁵⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

300/1

Well held in 2 AW Flat outings and a Sedgefield maiden hurdle.

Form: 5

Is This For Real^t²³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: J J Burke| T: F O'Brien

7/2

£80,000 point winner who struck at the second time of asking in bumpers at Kelso (soft) in March, quickening up well to lead close home. Should have a bright future over jumps.

Form: 1/51-

Japetus²¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| D

10/3

Dual bumper winner (good/good to soft) in the spring who rates a useful hurdle prospect for Nicky Richards.

Form: 211-

Kings Champion²¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

15/8

€175,000 purchase who showed promise amidst inexperience when third of 10 in Ffos Las bumper for Paul Nicholls in April. It'll be interesting to see how strong the betting vibes are now hurdling for Olly Murphy.

Form: 3-

Lock Stock²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁵⁾| T: B Pauling

2/1

Runner-up on 2 of 3 bumper starts and filled the same position on 2m Worcester hurdle debut/reappearance 4 weeks ago. The third from Worcester has won since and this Jack Hobbs gelding should have more to offer for in-form Ben Pauling.

Form: 5/220-2

Urblereagh^t²⁸³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Theo Gillard| T: T R Gretton

150/1

Sixth in a pair of maiden hurdles nearly 2 years apart. Off for a further 9 months ahead of reappearance. A likely type for low-grade handicaps after this

Form: 6/6-

Lady Velouette³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁵⁾| T: Olly Williams

50/1

Modest form in a Hexham bumper and 2 course hurdles in recent months.

Form: 5-544

Forecasts

Kings Champion (15/8), Lock Stock (2/1), Japetus (10/3), Is This For Real (7/2), Lady Velouette (50/1), A Law To Himself (66/1), Urblereagh (150/1), Born Like Me (300/1)

An interesting opener. JAPETUS and Is This For Real both displayed significant promise in bumpers, with the former narrowly preferred. Lock Stock was an encouraging second on his recent hurdle debut and should also play a prominent role for in-form Ben Pauling.
