Made the frame in 2 of 3 point starts, but showed nothing on Tipperary bumper debut in March. Wears first-time hood on first outing for new yard.

Picked up for £115,000 after finishing second sole point. Showed clear promise when reaching the frame in a Uttoxeter bumper/Bangor maiden hurdle and should improve. Had wind op/now tongue tied.

€20,000 3-y-o, Scorpion gelding. Dam, ran twice over hurdles, out of sister to smart chaser up to 29f Amtrak Express. Trainer’s newcomers always command plenty of respect.

Confirmed debut promise when readily off the mark in a Wetherby bumper in December (solid form). Not hard pressed to defy a penalty at Haydock and looks a good prospect for hurdling. Had wind op.

Black Sam Bellamy gelding who didn't show a great deal in a Huntingdon bumper on debut in March.

€55,000 3-y-o, Cokoriko gelding. Made an unpromising start to career in a heavy-ground Southwell bumper in December, but should be capable of better now hurdling up in trip after wind surgery.

Finished last of 8 in a polytrack bumper at Lingfield (2m) on NH debut in February, seeming unsuited by track. Goes hurdling now up in trip and should do better.

Looks a longer-term project on early evidence.

Forecasts

Mr Glass (4/6), Fishkhov (11/4), Major Sting (15/2), Unit Sixtyfour (11/1), Hazard Collonges (14/1), Softkore (33/1), Ballygoe (40/1), Pitch It Up (40/1), William Ewart (66/1), Sempione Park (66/1), Jukebox Junior (66/1), Konigsberg (100/1), Jet Fantastique (100/1), Welsby (125/1), Castcarrie (125/1), Rosearelli (150/1)

Verdict

MR GLASS boasts some very tidy bumper form and looks to have been found a suitable opening on this switch to obstacles, so he's the obvious choice. Newcomer Major Sting represents a top yard so has to command respect, while Fishkhov should have more to offer this season.

  1. MR GLASS (IRE)
