£70,000 half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/very smart chaser Thunder Rock (winner up to 23f) and modest hurdler/fair chaser Sir Rock (2½m-3¼m winner, both by Shirocco), from the family of top-class 2½m-3m hurdle winner Lady Rebecca. Point winner in October and clearly of interest.
€86,000 Blue Bresil half-brother to 5 winners, including useful hurdler/chase winner Regent's Stroll and useful bumper winner/hurdler Didtheyleaveuoutto. Tongue tied, strong in the betting and showed plenty when second on debut at Wincanton (heavy) 2 months ago. Entitled to improve.
|
Has made a good start showing fairly useful form in bumpers a year apart (trained by Tom Weston on debut), running into a subsequent listed winner on return at Wetherby at Christmas. Surely has a race like this in him.
|
Modest form on debut at Wincanton a year ago and too free returning for new yard there recently. Hood goes on.
|
Brother to stable star Dashel Drasher and looked one for the longer term himself in Wincanton bumper 2 months ago.
|
Arctic Cosmos gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including smart chaser Heron Heights and fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Witness In Court.
€130,000 No Risk At All gelding. Brother to fairly useful chaser Prince des Fichaux, stays 33f, and half-brother to hurdler Prouchki. Dam (c146/h130) 17f-21f hurdles/chase winner. Appealing newcomer on paper.
Well held in 2 bumpers.
|
Linda's Lad mare. Dam ran once in bumper. Wears hood.
Desinvolte filly out of sister to smart staying chaser Ramses de Teillee. 200/1, never dangerous in Wincanton bumper 3 weeks ago.

Forecasts
Ink Black Heart (13/8), Fine Tuning (5/2), River Kwai (7/2), Eastern Rock (7/1), Mighty Zeus (12/1), Lingering Glance (20/1), I'llhaveabitofthat (33/1), New Virginia (50/1), Porth Mear (66/1), Keep Off The Sugar (66/1)
INK BLACK HEART has shown plenty in a couple of bumpers, finding only a subsequent listed winner too good when starting out for Dan Skelton at Wetherby. He can get the job done this time. The money was down for Fine Tuning at Wincanton and he can build on that promising start, while point winner Eastern Rock and River Kwai are interesting runners on their first go in this sphere.
