Age: 6| Weight: 12-1| J: Fern O'Brien⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| D

3/1

Promise when third in a C&D bumper for Tom George last spring and, with a tongue tie added, he duly built on that to make a winning debut for new yard in 8-runner Uttoxeter bumper 7 weeks ago, staying on to lead final 100 yds. This looks tougher.

Form: 31

Castanea Breeze

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Joshua Parker⁽⁷⁾| T: L Wadham

14/1

€14,000 3-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Sporting Mike, stays 23f. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 21f) In Contrast. Yard boasts a 15% record with their runners in this code in last 5 seasons.

Draco Malfoy⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Nathan Andrews⁽⁷⁾| T: K C Bailey| BF

15/2

€140,000 4-y-o, Harzand gelding. Successful on second of 2 outings in Irish points (Apr 28) and showed ability without being able to justify favouritism when fourth behind re-opposing John Barbour in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f) 7 weeks ago. Entitled to do better.

Form: 41-4

Lock Stock⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁷⁾| T: B Pauling

10/3

Jack Hobbs gelding. Fifth sole start in point bumpers (Apr 20) and promise amidst obvious signs of inexperience when second in 4-runner bumper at Wincanton (15.2f) 54 days ago, headed dying strides. Worth considering with his rider taking off a handy 7 lb.

Form: 5-2

Money To Burn⁵³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: C Ellam

66/1

Valirann gelding who showed promise when fourth of 14 in bumper at Cork (16.9f, good to soft) on sole start for Shark Hanlon in summer 2023. Absent since though, and percentage call is to look elsewhere.

Form: 4-

Nazare³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Alex Chadwick⁽⁵⁾| T: James Owen

5/2

Masterstroke who showed plenty of ability, powering home in the style of a sure-fire improver when second of 9 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, soft) on NH debut 30 days ago, clear of rest. Worth considering with prospect of more to come.

Form: 2

Royal Hope²²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Billy Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: M Young

150/1

€10,000 3-y-o, Imperial Monarch gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fairly useful hurdle winner/unreliable but useful chaser Hold The Note. Fifth sole start in point bumpers (May 2024). Yard 1-21 with their runners in this sphere.

Form: 5

Spectre One

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D SkeltonWS

8/1

€60,000 3-y-o, Kingston Hill gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/chase winner Magnor Glory and bumper winner/useful hurdler Black Bamboo, stays 3m. Dam 19f/2½m hurdle/chase winner. Likely type on paper for top stable. Had wind op.

Form:

Three Pikes

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Jack Hogan⁽³⁾| T: T R George

18/1

Jack Hobbs gelding. Dam ran twice over hurdles, closely related to smart hurdle/chase winner (stays 21f) My Drogo out of useful hurdler/chaser My Petra (stayed 21f). Betting can prove a useful guide as to expectations on debut.

Form:

Apieceovfortune¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Miss Gina Andrews| T: Mrs P Sly

100/1

Yard have enjoyed plenty of success with this family but she looked one for later on when tenth of 13 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft, 25/1) on debut 17 days ago.

Form: 0

Cap Ricochet²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Mr Paddy Barlow⁽⁷⁾| T: Paul Collins

33/1

Capri gelding. Dam no form in bumpers. 12/1, showed ability whilst shaping as if better for the run when fourth of 9 in bumper at Wetherby (16f, heavy) on NH debut 26 days ago, fading. Can do better but others appeal more on this occasion.

Form: 4

Little Mukka

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Harry Brown⁽⁷⁾| T: F Brennan

125/1

Mukhadram gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including modest hurdler Just Once. Dam 7f winner. Yard 0-23 with their representatives in this sphere in last 5 seasons and he's a likely outsider on racecourse bow.

Forecasts

Nazare (5/2), John Barbour (3/1), Lock Stock (10/3), Draco Malfoy (15/2), Spectre One (8/1), Castanea Breeze (14/1), Three Pikes (18/1), Cap Ricochet (33/1), Money To Burn (66/1), Apieceovfortune (100/1), Little Mukka (125/1), Royal Hope (150/1)

NAZARE produced a promising first effort, powering home in the style of a sure-fire improver when second at Southwell 4 weeks ago and he earns the vote to confirm the promise of that run and go one place better. Lock Stock, who also finished runner-up on his debut is also fancied to feature. Newcomers Spectre One and Three Pikes are others to note, along with Draco Malfoy.
