Arizona Moon^t1

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds

18/1

Sea Moon gelding. Dam, ran twice on Flat, closely related to useful 6f-1m winner Passing Star. Wears tongue strap on debut and probably best watched on this occasion, unless the betting suggests otherwise.

Form:

Cool Customer⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: J J Burke| T: F O'Brien

16/5

From a family his yard know well (half-brother to fairly useful 2m/21f hurdle winner Siog Geal) and having finished runner-up sole start in Irish points, showed plenty of ability when second behind the favourite in a Southwell bumper on Rules debut last month (That'll Be Oxo third). Solid claims.

Form: 2-2

Loch Ness Pineau⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling

9/4

£100,000 purchase after winning sole start in Irish points in October. Half-brother to French chaser King Pineau (19f-2¾m winner, by Gentlewave). Dam, lightly raced over hurdles in France, 1½m-15f winner on Flat. Yard does well in this sphere and very much one to note on Rules debut.

Form: 1

Roi Du Roume⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: James Bowen| T: M Bowen

9/1

€78,000 3-y-o, €25,000 5-y-o. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/winning chaser in France Prince du Roume and fairly useful French hurdler Tresor du Roume. Off the mark at fifth attempt in maiden points in November but twice pulled up in that sphere and opposable on Rules debut.

Form: P5-3P1

That'll Be Oxo⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls

11/2

Half-brother to 5 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Irish Thistle and fairly useful hurdler Noble Robin. Shaped well when third on debut in a Southwell bumper and while he has a bit to find with Cool Customer (3 lengths adrift of that rival at Southwell), he merits respect.

Form: 3

Britway Belle⁹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Freddie Keighley⁽⁷⁾| T: Henry Oliver

12/1

Getaway mare who was bought for £120,000 after winning sole start in Irish points. Sister to useful chaser Lord Schnitzel, and half-sister to 2 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/chaser The Dubai Way, stayed 2¾m. Interesting to see what the betting makes of her ahead of Rules debut.

Form: 1

Don't Call Me Sue^h⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: N P Mulholland

100/1

Zebadiah mare out of a winning pointer who looked one for longer trips in due course when, sent off at 40/1, she finished nearer last than first on debut at Ludlow last month.

Form: 0

Faith's Song

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Benjamin Poste| T: T Symonds

22/1

£48,000 3-y-o, Jukebox Jury mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler The Winslow Boy, stays 2½m. Yard's strike rate in bumpers is pretty modest and she's another who is probably best watched on this occasion.

Form:

Pigeon Forge²⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: H Cobden| T: Miss E C Lavelle

4/1

Out of a bumper/2½m hurdle winner, herself a half-sister to useful hurdle winner/top-class chaser around 2m Ferny Hollow. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 2025) and she's an interesting Rules debutante, particularly with Harry Cobden booked.

Form: 3-1

Simply A Dancer^h⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Lily Pinchin| T: Mrs E Bishop

250/1

Out with the washing on her introduction at Ludlow and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 0

Mysti Meadow⁴⁰

Weight: 10-9| Age: 5

T: Mrs M Rowley J: Charlie Deutsch

Forecasts

Loch Ness Pineau (9/4), Cool Customer (16/5), Pigeon Forge (4/1), That'll Be Oxo (11/2), Roi Du Roume (9/1), Britway Belle (12/1), Arizona Moon (18/1), Faith's Song (22/1), Mysti Meadow (33/1), Don't Call Me Sue (100/1), Simply A Dancer (250/1)

Point winners PIGEON FORGE and Loch Ness Pineau are both appealing, particularly the former for whom the booking of Harry Cobden catches the eye. Cool Customer and That'll Be Oxo were second and third respectively at Southwell and are live candidates, while Mysti Meadow should build on her ecouraging debut at Ludlow and also take a hand in the finish.
