Telescope gelding from a family the yard knows well and confirmed debut promise when getting up late in slowly-run Exeter bumper (17f) in April. Hurdles debut didn't go to plan, far too free and on the retreat when falling over C&D 3 weeks ago.

£72,000 3-y-o. Half-brother to French chasers Extra Lida and Happyboum Lida. Dam unraced half-sister to useful French hurdler/chaser Rhialco. Shaped well when second on debut in October and while he failed to land the odds at Southwell 3 weeks ago, it was a step up in form terms. One to beat.

Pretty useful on the Flat for the Gosdens in 2024. Well beaten in Goodwood handicap for this yard a year ago and looked badly in need of the experience starting out in this sphere at Musselburgh in March.

Forecasts

Louis Veron (2/9), Lyric (5/1), Dunstall Star (12/1), Garde My Guinness (28/1), Colibri Bleu (40/1), Chambers (40/1), Connemara Joe (150/1)

Verdict

It's very hard to get away from LOUIS VERON on the back of a pair of promising runner-up efforts with credible rivals thin on the ground. Lyric is awarded the tentative vote for forecast purposes.
