7/1

£42,000 5-y-o, Ol' Man River gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdler Coral River, stays 3m. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) Three Faces West. One to note having won his second start in Irish points in January.

Jet Noir²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Mrs J Stephen

33/1

Third on his sole outing in Irish points. Well-beaten ninth of 12 in bumper at Newcastle on Rules debut 3 weeks ago, but is stoutly bred so this longer trip promises to suit as he goes hurdling.

Form: 39

Last Man Standing¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: R Menzies

50/1

Placed on his second start in bumpers, but well held in the other 2 and looked very much in need of the experience when tailed off at Market Rasen on hurdling debut 15 days ago, jumping awkwardly.

Form: 7-300

Maccarellu¹¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Ned Fox⁽³⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 110

17/2

Maiden winner on the Flat in France and fairly useful form over hurdles as a 4-y-o. After a year off prior to this season, looks to have been finding his feet gradually in 2 starts for current yard, sixth of 12 in maiden at Huntingdon in December. Could yet do better.

Form: 6F42-36

Mcelhattan^p1¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: William Maggs⁽³⁾| T: D McCain Jnr

28/1

Point winner but was well held in a bumper and hasn't made much impact in 2 starts over hurdles, beaten 3 out when sixth of 10 in maiden at Bangor 2 weeks ago. Cheekpieces now reached for.

Form: 21556

Patrick's Wells⁸⁸²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Danny McMenamin| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

20/1

Irish point winner but offered little on Rules debut when tailed off in novice hurdle at Wetherby back in November 2023. Has been absent over 2 years since.

Form: 610/

Tap Tap Shamie³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

2/13

Winning Irish pointer and showed plenty of ability on hurdling debut when second of 18 in maiden at Wincanton in February, forcing the odds-on favourite to knuckle down. The one to beat with improvement to come up in trip.

Form: 7/12

The Grey Venture³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Jonathon Bewley| T: G Bewley

66/1

Off the mark in Irish points at the fourth attempt. However, went with little encouragement when eleventh of 12 in novice hurdle at Newcastle on Rules debut a month ago.

Form: 54-510

The Shanachie²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: John Dawson

66/1

Shaped like a stayer only start in bumpers and again looked more one for the longer term when sixth of 9 in 17f novice at Newcastle on hurdles bow 3 weeks ago.

Form: 66

Aristelle^p⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Leah Noreci⁽¹⁰⁾| T: James Moffatt

50/1

Shaped much better than on debut when third of 6 in mares bumper at this course in December, looking a stayer. However, tailed off at Newcastle the following month and absent since.

Form: 738

Forecasts

Tap Tap Shamie (2/13), Dream On Mick (7/1), Maccarellu (17/2), Patrick's Wells (20/1), Mcelhattan (28/1), Jet Noir (33/1), Aristelle (50/1), Last Man Standing (50/1), The Grey Venture (66/1), The Shanachie (66/1)

TAP TAP SHAMIE made a promising start to his Rules career when pulling clear with the odds-on favourite at Wincanton in February and he looks to hold leading claims of going one better. Irish point winner Dream On Mick could be next best on his hurdling debut, ahead of Maccarellu.
