Age: 6|  Weight: 11-5| J: Ben Pollard(10)| T: G & J Moore
5/2
Well held in an Irish bumper for Sean Thomas Doyle in July 2024 but has fared better in the pointing field over there since, including a maiden win in December. One to note in the betting on first start for the Moore stable.

13/8
Promising start when second on soft ground Huntingdon just before Christmas but failed to back that up on a quicker surface at Kempton since. Sets a fair standard if bouncing back to his debut form.

9/1, showed a bit when 6 lengths fourth on Lingfield bumper debut (AW) in December. His pedigree suggests the likely greater emphasis on stamina this race provides should play to his strengths.

9/2
Blue Bresil mare. Dam (h87) lightly raced over hurdles. Debutante from a very good stable. Would firmly enter the reckoning should the betting speak in her favour.

Backed at long odds but looked badly in need of the experience when seventh of 14 on Kempton debut (2m, soft) 5 weeks ago.

9/2
Jack Hobbs gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/top-class chaser Any Second Now and fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Roxboro Road, stayed 3m. Makes plenty of appeal on paper for his top yard.

She's A Driver

66/1
Planteur filly. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/fair chase winner Na Caith Tobac. Dam 1m/9f winner. Bred to have a future but David Bridgwater is 0-10 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons.

Forecasts

Otie's Friend (13/8), Mint Approved (5/2), Blue's Secret Gem (9/2), Delgany Second Now (9/2), Chocks Away (14/1), Silk Mountain (25/1), She's A Driver (66/1)

Verdict

Well-bred debutant DELGANY SECOND NOW gets the vote for Dan Skelton, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Otie's Friend will be a danger if bouncing back to the level of his opening Huntingdon second, while Blue's Secret Gem is another newcomer who would very much need considering if the market speaks in her favour.
