Fairly useful form shown when placed in a trio of bumpers and he left his hurdling debut form behind fitted a tongue strap when second of 11 in maiden hurdle at Hereford (19.7f) 36 days ago. Likely type to progress further and he rates the one to beat here.
|
Limited impact both starts in bumpers and failed to complete all 3 starts in maiden hurdles in Ireland for Miss Tara Lee Cogan. Starts out for new yard with headgear discarded and likely best watched unless betting vibes proved particularly positive.
|
Bought for 5,000 gns after winning an Irish point in November but sent off at unflattering odds and went with little short-term promise when a distant sixth of 7 in Taunton novice (19f) 7 days ago.
|
Safely held in a couple of bumpers last spring and it was a similar story returning from 7 months off when last of 6 in novice hurdle at Leicester (15.5f, heavy) 6 weeks ago.
|
Showed a bit on the first of 2 starts in bumpers last season but difficult to take much encouragement from either hurdle run so far this campaign, struggling quickly when last of 6 in a Doncaster maiden (20.8f) 7 weeks ago. Cheekpieces now reached for.
|
Runner-up in a point last March. Shaped as if needing the outing when seventh in Newton Abbot bumper in October. Leading stable wastes no time switching him to hurdles over a longer trip.
|
French bumper winner in 2021 who has clearly not been the easiest to train, absent further 23 months having finished a respectable third in a Ffos Las maiden (20f) last year. Interesting what the market makes of him but this 8-y-o could be an interesting type for handicaps going forward.
|
£55,000 4-y-o, Masked Marvel gelding. Half-brother to 6f-7.4f winner Thousand Dreams. Dam maiden on Flat. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points in November and he's an intriguing Rules debutant for very good yard.
|
Well beaten in a Southwell bumper in November. Likely outsider now hurdling.
|
Fair form when fourth in a couple of bumpers last spring and, following 6 months off, he again ran well from the front when second of 10 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, soft) 76 days ago. Should be up to making his mark now hurdling.
|
€62,000 purchase after getting off the mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 2025). Interesting hurdle debutant is worth a second look in the betting.
|
Tailed-off last of 3 in a bumper and pulled up in a C&D maiden hurdle in 2023/24 season. Has won in points since but it would still be a surprise to see him figure on this return to Rules.
|
Makes no obvious appeal on paper and would be a shock winner on this rather belated debut.

Catchintsavo (8/11), Last Round (3/1), Seaniecon (10/3), Not At That Price (10/1), Idaho Fire (18/1), Catch Yourself On (50/1), Ironica De Thaix (50/1), Hairy Potter (125/1), La Vish (150/1), Fanny Moon (150/1), Shuile Warrior (150/1), Fane Court (250/1), Asifbymagic (250/1)
CATCHINTSAVO left his hurdles debut form in his wake with a first-time tongue strap enlisted when finishing a very good second at Hereford 5 weeks ago and, appealing as the type to progress further, he holds sound claims of going one place better back up in trip. Not At That Price showed plenty of ability in bumpers and is next on the list. Ben Pauling's point recruit Last Round is another to consider. Idaho Fire also requires market attention now hurdling.
