Turenne¹⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-7| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| D

9/4

Quick to make into a fairly useful hurdler in France for David Cottin, scoring over 2m at Compiegne in May. The clear form pick now starting out for his new yard. Big shout.

Form: 53-15

Division Day⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Craig Nichol| T: B Ellison

12/1

A fair 14f Flat scorer in September who also posted a good second at Redcar (14f) last month. Much respected now going over hurdles.

Form:

Explode^t²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: Faye Bramley| BF

9/4

Made into a fairly useful 1m2f winner on the Flat for James Ferguson this summer. Goes hurdling now for new stable and can't be discounted.

Form:

Indian River⁸¹

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: A Keatley| BF

15/8

Son of Nathaniel who shaped well in a pair of 1m4f maidens in Ireland this summer for John Joseph Murphy. Not without interest now starting out in this sphere for his new handler.

Form:

Red Scarlet^t¹¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Edward Austin⁽⁵⁾| T: G BewleyWS

80/1

Fair 7f ex-Irish maiden at her best in 2025. Starts out for new yard on the back of wind surgery with her stamina to prove now going hurdling.

Form:

Stitching Wheel²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Ross Chapman| T: C Grant

150/1

A fair ex-French maiden at her best on the Flat but she unseated her rider at the second on her hurdling bow at Wetherby last month. Has a bit to prove now.

Form: U

Forecasts

Indian River (15/8), Turenne (9/4), Explode (9/4), Genbu (11/1), Division Day (12/1), Red Scarlet (80/1), Stitching Wheel (150/1)

A few of these offer potential but David Pipe's French recruit TURENNE brings fairly-useful winning hurdles form and is hard to side against here. Adrian Keatley's Indian River could emerge as the pick of a clutch of fair Flat performers ahead of Explode and Division Day.
