Oddschecker Free Bets Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race) (Div 1)

Hinted at ability when mid-field in a Exeter novice last month. Probably one for handicaps, though.

Definite signs of ability when sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at Hereford (16.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago, considerately handled. Likely to be seen in better light when sent handicapping, though.

Irish point winner who landed a heavy-ground Fontwell bumper in February and has run well in a trio of starts over timber this term, latest when fourth of 12 in novice at Ascot (21.7f, good to soft, 10/3) 27 days ago. Drop in trip ought to suit and holds obvious claims.

Adaay gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdlers Leroy Leroy and Bank Bonus, stayed 3m. Dam 8.2f winner. Runner-up sole completed start in points and is likely a longer-term prospect.

Very little signs of ability in a bumper/points in Ireland and fared no better making hurdles bow at Exeter in November.

Made the frame both starts in bumpers (fair form) and also on hurdles debut for Willie Mullins at Tramore this time last year. Back from 11 months off when encouraging third of 15 in novice at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) on debut for new yard 29 days ago and is entited to build on that.

Pulled up halfway in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) on NH debut 28 days ago and can only be watched here.

Looks limited on evidence of sole bumper outing and last month's Exeter hurdles bow.

Huge odds and no form in AW events/2 juvenile hurdles. Had wind operation.

Fair Flat winner on debut in France and shaped as if needing the outing when sixth of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 60 days ago. In good hands and is likely to do better.
