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.

5/1
£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.

6/4
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.

Forecasts

Wilstar (11/10), Tread Carefully (6/4), Myrighthandman (5/1), Joeybottles (10/1), Good Boy Griff (28/1), Promethean (33/1), Golly Gosh (40/1), Lawsky (100/1), Dino Moon (150/1), Hobnail (250/1)

Verdict

TREAD CAREFULLY is well worth another chance to confirm his strong Sandown form having pulled hard on heavy ground at Leicester subsequently. Wilstar left his hurdles debut well behind when second at Ayr and is the obvious threat.
