4/6 |
Belle Le Grand
Joined Dan Skelton after making all for ready success in good-ground Fairyhouse bumper last October and was creditable third in good-ground Ascot bumper in February on stable debut; commands respect on hurdling debut.

Last Note
Half-sister to useful chaser Sir Note; belied 22-1 odds when second to stablemate of Belle Le Grand in good-ground Fakenham bumper a fortnight ago and ought to have a future over jumps.

Rightofway
Quite promising fourth of 16 in soft-ground course bumper in November 2023 but returned from long absence with two down-the-field bumper runs this year and made a low-key hurdling debut last month; hood added today.

Sharp Glance
From a family the trainer knows well and displayed significant promise in all three bumpers, perhaps most notably when sixth of 13 here (soft) in February; considered each-way on this hurdling debut.

Alvesta
Placed in low-grade AW handicap in March (1m4f; RPR 60) and appeared to take pretty well to hurdling when second of three behind easy 1-25 winner at Huntingdon (2m, good) last month; however, it's very tricky to weigh up what she achieved on that hurdling debut.

Aquifolia
Struggled off her basement Flat mark last month and has now been unplaced all eight starts in that sphere; can only be watched on hurdling debut.

Burgeon
Has good Flat pedigree but was well beaten on last summer's Flat debut and showed only minor promise over hurdles for new stable last month.

10/1 |
Hope Rising
Showed some ability at up to 1m4f on the Flat for Charles Hills but signed off for him with very disappointing AW run in blinkers (now discarded) in October and makes only limited appeal on this stable/hurdle debut.

Merely A Detail
Won good-ground Doncaster bumper in December on debut but all three subsequent bumper runs were disappointing and her tendency to race far too freely remains a serious concern before this hurdling debut.

Soundly beaten in both bumpers and when 125-1 for hurdling debut at Chepstow (2m, good) in March.
