BAR 1 Betting 3-Y-O Maiden Hurdle

Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Has hinted at ability but finished last of 6 in juvenile hurdle (200/1) at Punchestown (15.8f, heavy) 24 days ago. Better off in handicaps.

Fair form in maidens on Flat (stays 1m) for Joseph O'Brien but unpromising start over hurdles for new yard, faring no better than on hurdle debut when tenth of 12 in juvenile hurdle (125/1) at Navan (16f, heavy) 21 days ago.

Fair form in maidens on Flat, mid-division in a 9f Leopardstown maiden last time. Has since left J. S. Bolger and market should guide on stable/hurdle debut.

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1¾m). Hit the frame in pair of handicaps but was well below form last time. In good hands for hurdle debut but Ole Ole may be stable first-string.

Useful performer on Flat (stays 1¼m). Shaped much better than on hurdles debut when 15/2, seventh of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) 15 days ago, not knocked about. One to note for handicaps down the line.

Fairly useful form on Flat in France (stays 1¾m), won maiden at Compiegne last time. Left M. Delzangles for €110,000 in July. Gelded prior to hurdle debut (tongue strap retained) and one to note for excellent yard.

It's Gino gelding. Dam, sister to French chaser (stayed 4½m) Toutancarmont and half-sister to French chaser (21f-23f winner) Lord Carmont. Won 12-runner maiden bumper at Moulins on sole start for Mme I. Pacault in April. Makes appeal sent hurdling by powerful new connections.

Fairly useful maiden on the Flat but is seemingly being campaigned with handicaps in mind over hurdles. One for another day.

Fair maiden on the Flat for John Nallen. Plenty of stamina in his pedigree and showed a bit on hurdle/stable debut when seventh of 12 in juvenile hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 20/1) on NH debut 21 days ago, not knocked about. Type to do better in handicaps.

Fair form when third in a Clairefontaine juvenile hurdle (17f, soft) that has worked out well and made an encouraging stable debut when second of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, soft, 6/1) 15 days ago, travelled well. Solid claims to go one better here.

Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m) for Jamie Osborne, lazy display when last seen in June. Likely a longer-term project for new yard.
