Had a positive 2024 campaign for Jedd O'Keeffe, winning at Doncaster in May before making the frame on his next 5 outings. Absent for 20 months since, though, so likely just best watched starting out for new connections.

Runner-up twice on all-weather early last year for B. F. Brookhouse but pulled up both starts hurdling this year for Andrew Hamilton and looks hard to fancy back on the Flat after another stable switch.

Winless since 2023 but in good nick last season, ending with third of 13 in 13f handicap at Ayr in September. Probably needed the run when sixth of 7 in handicap at Beverley (1½m, good to firm) 10 days ago, so no surprise to see her make a greater impact here.

Seemed well suited by a stiff test when winning at Carlisle in August before a good second over 1½m here next time. Far too keen with cheekpieces applied at Newcastle when last seen and that headgear is retained on return from 6 months off.

Fair form at his best on the Flat when trained by Donnacha O'Brien and though he's not been seen in this sphere since 2024, he arrives after a trio of good efforts over hurdles. Interesting.

Won at Carlisle last summer before following up over 11f here. Largely reliable, but he ran poorly both starts over hurdles in the winter and perhaps there'll be other days for him returning from 132 days off under claimer having only second ride.

Looked a staying type in all-weather novices prior to Christmas and made only steady headway from off the pace when sixth on handicap debut at Newcastle. Since given 3 spins over hurdles and he'll likely be of more interest in this sphere when able to tackle longer distances.

Arrives on the back of 4 placed efforts, beaten only a head at Newcastle at the end of March before going down by a nose at Wolverhampton 3 days later. Came from further back than the first pair when third of 7 at Musselburgh (9f, good) 4 days ago and he looks set to go well again.

Forecasts

Alpine Sierra (1/1), Valley Of Flowers (4/1), Taylormade Lad (13/2), Monsieur Melee (10/1), Jaminoz (10/1), Newport (12/1), Gozo (25/1), Ned Broy (25/1)

Verdict

ALPINE SIERRA has been knocking on the door this season and looks to have found a decent opening to deservedly get off the mark for the year. Valley of Flowers and Newport can complete the 1-2-3.
