Horse A-Z
€110,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 29f) Pettifour. Shaped like a stayer when seventh of 24 in a bumper at Punchestown (for Philip Fenton) in the spring. Third on hurdles bow at Newbury and can only improve for that.

22/1
Encouraging fifth of 13 in novice hurdle at Warwick (16f, good to soft, 200/1) on debut 71 days ago, not knocked about. Significantly up in trip and needs a big step forward.

5/2
Shaped with promise when fourth in a pair of bumpers and has done the same over hurdles, hitting the frame all 3 starts in 2024. Off a year and below form at Windsor but he's in the right hands.

15/2
Bought for £105,000 after winning a 2-finisher point and nearly justified support on Rules debut when a narrow second in a 9-runner bumper at Fontwell (17.7f, soft) in January. Fairly low-key start over hurdles but he's open to progress.

€52,000 3-y-o, €54,000 5-y-o, Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Alto des Mottes, stayed 3¾m, and French hurdler/chaser Datcha des Mottes. Successful last 2 starts in Irish points in October/November 2025 and cheekpieces on for Rules debut.

Minor promise only in a trio of bumpers and now up in trip for hurdles debut with tongue tie removed.

9/2
£80,000 recruit from the Irish pointing field after a win in January. Tongue tied and reasonable start to hurdles career when third of 8 at Newbury in October and he can build on that (has had a breathing operation).

100/1
Order of St George horse. Dam (h111), 2m hurdle winner, half-sister to Fruit Blossom (stayed 2¾m) and Sea Aster (stays 3¼m), both fairly useful hurdler/chaser.

Forecasts

Buddy Holly (11/10), Jaccours (5/2), Tommy Pickles (9/2), Karma Police (15/2), Kenzo Des Bruyeres (12/1), Ercall Fox (22/1), Wings Of Arion (100/1), Sea Victory (250/1)

Verdict

BUDDY HOLLY ought to have derived plenty from his opening hurdles run at Newbury 2 months ago so expected to take a step forward from that, he could be the answer. Tommy Pickles is another open to progress, while dual-point winner Kenzo des Bruyeres starts out at a realistic level.
