|
Timeform
Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including top-class hurdler State Man and useful hurdler Statuaire. Dam hurdle/chase winner up to 19f. Wears a hood for his debut and he has to merit serious consideration.

Forecasts

Kalypso'chance (9/4), Soir De Garde (5/2), W B Easy (5/2), Goldinthevalleys (5/1), Ardgillan (16/1), Kaleo Ametsa (28/1), Thoughtsarethings (40/1), Times A Wastin (150/1), Nohilltoosteep (200/1)

Verdict

SOIR DE GARDE makes obvious appeal on paper as a half-brother to connections' top-class hurdler State Man and he's taken to make the perfect start here under Patrick Mullins. Kalypso'chance, a winner of his only start in British points, is another to note, along with W B Easy who shaped well on his sole outing in bumpers here back in the spring.
