Off time: 12:28 | Winning time: 3m 56.24s

Cloaks Of Gold^t⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: David Bass| T: M Comley

4/1

Dam half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Mubrook. Fair maiden on Flat (stays 13.5f), good second in handicap last time, albeit seen to maximum effect. Has left David Evans ahead of hurdle debut and needs considering.

Form:

Made U Blush⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

1/2

Fairly useful on Flat for Jonathan Portman (stays 1¼m), won handicap at Yarmouth on final outing in October. Subsequently sold for 90,000 gns and looks the one to beat if transferring that form to hurdling.

Form:

Miss Carbo¹⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: N P Mulholland

5/1

Showed form verging on fair when runner-up both starts over hurdles in France, latest in 5-runner juvenile claimer at Dax (17.4f) in June. Claimed from A. Boisbrunet €14,006 after and must enter calculations on UK/stable debut.

Form: 22

Rosso Levanto²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Joe Anderson⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer

66/1

Regressive on the Flat and has unseated rider both starts in juvenile events over hurdles.

Form: UU

Sovereign Applause⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: R Menzies

16/1

Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 2m hurdler Puturhandstogether but just a modest maiden on Flat (stays 1½m), failing to progress in minor event last time. Makes hurdle bow.

Form:

Non-Runners

Weight: 11-0| Age: 3

Forecasts

Made U Blush (1/2), Cloaks Of Gold (4/1), Miss Carbo (5/1), Prettylady (11/2), Sovereign Applause (16/1), Rosso Levanto (66/1)

MADE U BLUSH has the best Flat form of these and will surely prove hard to beat if taking to hurdling. Miss Carbo has found only one too good on both her starts in this sphere in France and is feared most ahead of Cloaks of Gold.
