Showed more than previously over hurdles when second of 18 in maiden at Lingfield (10/1) last month, shaping well as he passed more than half the field from the end of the back straight alone. Open to further improvement.
|
Shaped encouragingly when second on hurdling debut last spring but has failed to see his races out since, latest on first run since leaving Paul Nolan at Ludlow 5 weeks ago. Drop back in trip should help on that front.

Yeats Gelding. Brother to useful hurdler/very smart chaser De Rasher Counter (2m-3¼m winner), and half-brother to 2 winners, including fair hurdler Cute Cherry (by Fame And Glory). Dam modest 2½m chase winner. Maiden pointer, runner-up last 2 starts (both in April 2025).
|
Off the mark in Irish points 12 months ago but wasn't competitive on hurdling debut when tailed off at Cheltenham on New Year's Day.
|
Runner-up in bumper and showed promise when placed at Chepstow all 3 outings over hurdles last term. Low-key start this season but finally got back on track in only his second handicap when runner-up over C&D 3 weeks ago. Leading claims back in maiden company.

Forecasts
Shade Of Winter (5/4), Kara Sacre (15/8), Jamada (3/1), Makinbecon (20/1), Minella Mission (80/1)
Preference is for JAMADA, who showed plenty more than previously when runner-up at Lingfield last month and Olly Murphy's 6-y-o can go one better with further improvement on the cards. Shade of Winter has found one too strong in half of his 6 hurdles outings, and he may have to settle for silver again, whilst Makinbecon is worth keeping an eye on having finished runner-up on his last couple of point starts.
- Jamada3/1
