Settings
Selected odds by:
Fair Flat winner in who has taken well to hurdling, defying a penalty at the first attempt in 7-runner novice at Kelso (16.2f) last month. Remains open to improvement.
|
Little form over hurdles and easily ed over. Hood on for 1st time.
|
Showed promise when placed on first 2 hurdle starts but was well held on first start for current yard at Kelso last month. Bounce back needed.
|
Well held in maiden/novice hurdle, broke blood vessel latest.
|
€25,000 3-y-o, £10,000 5-y-o, Mount Nelson gelding. Dam useful hurdler/chaser (winner up to 21f, stayed 23f). Placed both completed starts in points, runner-up last time (Apr 26). Market for clues.
|
Fair bumper performer who didn't need to improve to land the odds in 6-runner novice at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) 17 days ago, edging ahead near finish. Should be competitive under a penalty.
|
Fairly useful maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Jim Bolger. Fair form when making late headway into sixth at Navan on his completed start over hurdles. Sets out for his new stable at a realistic level and must enter calculations. Has been gelded.
|
Modest maiden on Flat for Charlie Fellowes who showed benefit of initial experience in this sphere when 2¾ lengths third of 7 to Pergamon in novice hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, good, 33/1) 20 days ago.
|
Showed some ability in bumpers but has been pulled up both starts over hurdles. Has left Nicky Richards.
|
No sign of ability in a pair of bumpers/novice hurdles.

Forecasts
Sharp Glance (10/11), Pergamon (11/4), Teofimo (9/2), Veer (12/1), You Did (25/1), Jysuis (25/1), Kow Boy Sivola (33/1), Rightbackatyou (33/1), Getaway Frankie (40/1), Soldier At Arms (66/1), Knightphase (100/1), Hannigan's Power (250/1)
TEOFIMO shaped with promise on his first competed start over hurdles when sixth at Navan in January and could well be the answer setting out for a new stable if a subsequent gelding operation has curbed his headstrong nature. Sharp Glance should be competitive under a penalty, while Pergamon has made an excellent start to his hurdle career and remains open to improvement.
