Baron Noir253
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King
Took a backward step from debut when 38 lengths eighth of 10 to Shuttle Diplomacy in listed bumper at Limerick (16.2f, heavy). Off 8 months and first for yard after leaving Daniel G. Murphy but has joined a successful stable.

Timeform
Sea Moon gelding who is bred more for stamina than speed and shaped accordingly amidst greenness when fifth of 8 in a C&D bumper on debut in May. More like it ridden positively when third at Warwick 5 months later.

€22,000 3-y-o, Idaho gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Moroder. Dam unraced. Wears hood.

Horse silk
Tiptoptim212
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-2| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden
£70,000 4-y-o, Mount Nelson gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 19f) Grumeti. Makes plenty of appeal on paper having won his sole start in Irish points during the spring.
Timeform
No Risk At All gelding. Half-brother to French hurdler/chaser Fortune du Large. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Turcagua.
Timeform
Last of 9 in bumper at Taunton on debut. Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Keiran Burke and is quickly fitted with a tongue tie.

€40,000 3-y-o, £80,000 4-y-o, Kingston Hill filly. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 21f) Competitive Edge out of 2m hurdle winner Sanghasta. Already successful in an Irish point and showed plenty to work on when third in a Chepstow bumper a month ago.

Forecasts

Kingston Queen (9/4), Tiptoptim (11/4), Twist Of Fatecatch (3/1), Baron Noir (9/2), Moon Monarch (10/1), One For Hadley (20/1), Whynotnowbart (50/1), Suzy Wood (100/1)

Verdict

TIPTOPTIM has transferred to a yard with a really good record in bumpers on the back of an Irish point win in the spring so he may well be up to the job on Rules bow. Kinston Queen also won between the flags and sets the standard on her placed effort at Chepstow, with Twist of Fatecatch another likely type on paper.
