Fair form when placed in third in similar races at Ffos Las and Newbury last month. May do better again.

Timeform
Third in a bumper in January but more one for the longer term over jumps judged on his first attempt at Fontwell.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-4| J: Bryan Carver| T: H Fry| OR:  120
From a decent French NH family and plenty of promise when placed in a bumper and 2 maiden hurdles. Should have more to offer and leading claims.
|
Timeform
Didn't achieve much in a pair of bumpers last season. A watching brief is advised on hurdle debut.

Tuxedo Junctiont7
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-4| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR:  113
Fairly useful Flat performer for James Fanshawe and has placed on all 3 starts in 2m maiden/novice hurdles for new yard. Expect another prominent showing from him.
|
Timeform
£50,000 buy after winning sole outing in Irish points in May but couldn't muster the pace to get involved in a Ffos Las bumper last month and is likely to need longer trips than this over jumps.
|
Timeform
Fair form when placed twice in bumpers (for Sam Curling in Ireland first occasion). Latest stable debut third at Ffos Las was her first outing for 5 months so she's entitled to strip fitter now hurdling.
|
Timeform
Well held in 2 bumpers in recent weeks (trained by James Owen first occasion).

Forecasts

Kap Ouest (1/1), Don't Wind Me Up (5/2), Tuxedo Junction (4/1), Reel Orange (14/1), Hard Dealt (25/1), Grenadier Jed (25/1), Lions Peak (33/1), What U Wanna Do Is (66/1), Atlantic Power (100/1)

Verdict

KAP OUEST leaves the impression he's capable of better again and is narrowly preferred to Tuxedo Junction. Don't Wind Me Up looks clear best of the rest.
