It will be an ominous sign for his rivals if NATIVEHILL is strong in the betting ahead of this Rules debut. The 6-y-o was last seen winning a maiden point in April 2023 but he's unlikely to be found wanting fitness-wise and is certainly bred for the job. Fellow point winner Buckna made a positive start in this sphere at Ffos Las and, with the promise of better to come now upped in trip, he looks a big threat. Captain Bellamy is also open to improvement and merits respect, too.
