Book The Bistro In Seasons Restaurant Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race) (Div 1)

Well held in bumper/maiden hurdles.

Well held in a Warwick bumper and Huntingdon maiden hurdle 8 months apart.

Hinted at ability in bumpers but not enough to make him of interest on hurdles bow.

Well held in bumper/novice hurdle.

Encouraging debut third of 13 in bumper at Perth in April but low-key start over hurdles at Catterick on return. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

No impact in a brace of bumpers during the spring of 2024 and similar story both starts over hurdles for new yard.

£35,000 4-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Half-brother to 5 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Westerner Lady. Won only outing in Irish points but shaped like a long-term prospect on hurdles debut at Wetherby (16f, soft) 79 days ago. Subsequently had breathing operation.

Fair performer on Flat (stays 1½m) but below form last 4 starts in 2025.

Runner-up in a Uttoxeter bumper in March and duly built on reappearance/hurdles debut promise when splitting pair of subsequent winners in 2m Sandown maiden. Pulled too hard on heavy ground at Leicester since and well worth another chance.

Successful at Perth on second start in bumpers during the spring and clearly wasn't right on hurdles debut at Newbury in November. Duly left that behind in a tongue strap when second at Ayr and good chance of going one better.
