Showed little in bumpers and did so once again on hurdling debut at Chepstow earlier this month. Hard to make a strong case for.

Flat-bred mare caught the eye beforehand and during the race when making a winning start at Newbury in December. Found step up to listed company too much and wasn't disgraced under a penalty when fifth at Huntingdon in April. One to consider starting life over hurdles in an open-looking novice.

5/1
Half-sister to fair hurdler Rickety Bridge. Dam, maiden hurdler/chaser, half-sister to top-class hurdler/high-class chaser Big Buck's. Showed fair form when second on hurdling debut for Gabriel Leenders. Has undergone wind surgery prior to stable/UK debut and looks an interesting recruit.

€62,000 Lord of England filly. Shaped with some promise when fourth in a 10-runner bumper on debut at Uttoxeter 23 days ago, not given a hard time. No surprise to see her take a step forward sent hurdling for top yard.

11/4
Placed in all 3 bumper outings and made a positive start over hurdles when second in a novice at Hereford (16.2f). Typically too free when failing to see out her race upped in trip at Ludlow last time and should fare better back over 2m.

Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Apr 2025) but offered little on Rules debut (66/1) at Fontwell last month. Looks one for the longer-term.

Made the frame on 3 completed starts in Irish points and made a winning start under Rules when scoring 1¾ lengths from Lady Kara at Fontwell in September. Didn't look entirely straightforward that day (fractious at start/raced freely) but merits respect on first start over hurdles.

200/1
€9,000 3-y-o, Westerner filly. Very green on debut when jumping badly right at the first and unseating at Wincanton earlier this month. Wears first-time hood but likely to need more time.

Forecasts

Teddington Lock (9/4), Lady Kara (11/4), Chatty Girl (10/3), Future Bucks (5/1), Independent Lady (5/1), Mild Magic (40/1), Anabil Blue (200/1), Western Ginny (200/1)

Verdict

Runner-up on hurdles bow in France, FUTURE BUCKS makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and she's taken to make a winning start for Jamie Snowden. The market should offer plenty of clues regarding the hurdle newcomers, Chatty Girl perhaps most interesting if recapturing her debut form, while Lady Kara finished second on her first run over hurdles and should be seen to better effect back over 2m.
