5/1

£90,000 on the back of success sole start in Irish points and he bettered his previous exploits in bumpers equipped with a hood (retained here) when landing 3-runner contest at Ffos Las in February. Continued the good work when justifying heavy support on hurdles debut at Lingfield a fortnight ago.

Form: 1/531-1

1/5

Good pedigree and looked very exciting when making a winning start to his career in a bumper at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) in March. Did nothing to alter that view when landing the odds on hurdles bow at Carlisle 3 weeks ago hard held and he's sure to improve a lot.

Form: 1-1

Smoke Trail³⁹

12/1

£65,000 4-y-o, Jet Away gelding. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Theo and bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (2m-17f winner) Kingston James. Winning Irish pointer who jumped fluently when making all on hurdles bow at Kelso in October. More to come.

Form: 61-1

Forecasts

Mydaddypaddy (1/5), Kosac D'oudairies (5/1), Smoke Trail (12/1)

All 3 made winning hurdles debuts but MYDADDYPADDY created a serious impression when effortlessly scoring at Carlisle in the manner of one ready and able for Graded company. He therefore has to receive the vote, ahead of Kosac d'Oudairies.
