4YO plus | Class 4 | 2m 178y | 9 Runners | Turf

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

Well held in 2 AW Flat outings and a pair of novice hurdles over C&D and at Market Rasen last month. Needs to take a step forward.

Form: 56

Eddie My Eagle^h¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: Dan Horsford

9/2

Runner-up in a point bumper/bumper before catching the eye on his hurdling bow when fourth of 11 in novice at Huntingdon (15.8f, soft, 12/1) 13 days ago, finishing really well late on. Sure to improve and merits consideration.

Form: 2-24

Leaumec De Mee⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Skelton| BF

2/5

Beaumec de Houelle gelding who has shaped very well when second in a Kempton bumper in March and on his hurdling bow in 2m2f maiden at Fontwell in October. Looks to have plenty more to offer and he's the one to beat.

Form: 2-2

Made All^t⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: S England

9/1

A three-time 1m4f winner on the Flat in 2025 and consistent sort too. Goes hurdling now and he must enter calculations.

Form:

Mafia Power^t²⁸³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: P Neville| OR: 93

15/2

A fair 2m scorer on the Flat but yet to match that form in this sphere, fourth of 11 in 2m novice hurdle at Catterick in February. More is required on his seasonal return.

Form: 4P/P4-

Scairp Dubh¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

25/1

Won point bumper in March and second in bumper here (sole start for Tjade Collier) in May. Little show in a pair of 2m novice hurdles for current yard last month though so others appeal more.

Form: 1-276

Siege Of Acres⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Theo Gillard| T: D McCain JnrWS

16/1

Made frame both starts in Irish points but only seventh of 8 in bumper at Carlisle (17.2f, good to firm) on his NH debut 50 days ago. Since had a wind op and could still do better on his hurdles debut.

Form: 44-7

Sovereignlightcafe⁵²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M & D Easterby

33/1

A fair and lightly-raced maiden on Flat in the first half of 2024. Returns from 17 months offf for his hurdling bow and the market can prove an accurate guide.

Form:

Steel Soldier⁴⁹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Norton

100/1

Little impact in Irish points and he came in a well-held sixth of 11 switched to hurdling in 2m4f Uttoxeter novice 16 months ago. Others are preferred.

Form: 7F/806-

Forecasts

Leaumec De Mee (4/9), Eddie My Eagle (6/1), Born Like Me (10/1), Made All (12/1), Mafia Power (16/1), Siege Of Acres (16/1), Scairp Dubh (25/1), Sovereignlightcafe (33/1), Steel Soldier (150/1)

Dan Skelton's LEAUMEC DE MEE went with plenty of promise when runner-up on his hurdling debut at Fontwell and can build on it to go one better here. Eddie My Eagle also looks to have better days ahead of him but might have to settle for second once more, while Sam England's hurdling debutant Made All has some fair winning Flat form to his name and also commands respect.
