Asylo⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

10/1

Made a winning start to his bumper career last month but this will be tougher, having to carry a penalty in what looks a deeper contest.

Form:

King Of Realms⁶⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Adrian Heskin| T: Ian Williams

11/10

Was very impressive on bumper debut at Ascot back in November although form of that race hasn't worked out too well so far.

Form: 1

Carlos Du Fruitier²³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: David Bass| T: B Pauling

7/1

Showed some promise in his two point-to-point starts and trainer has a decent record at the track with bumper runners (5/9 in recent seasons).

Form: 42

Chase Me^h1³²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Paul Moloney| T: Sarah Hollinshead

40/1

Runner-up in four of his five point-to-point starts but yard doesn't have many winners (3/114 under all codes in last year).

Form: 22242-

Flemcara²⁸⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Aidan Coleman| T: Miss E C Lavelle

9/1

Ran a solid second in sole point-to-point start but trainer has a poor record at track (1/34). Type that's likely to do better when sent over obstacles.

Form: 2-5

Forgetthesmalltalk¹⁰²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Wayne Hutchinson| T: A King

8/1

Won the second of his two point-to-point starts and has joined powerful connections since. Trainer only 1/18 with his bumper runner at track, however.

Form: P-1

Justice Knight^h³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: L Treadwell| T: M Scudamore

100/1

Didn't settle on bumper debut and best watched for now.

Form:

Marble Mist³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr Lewis Gordon⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams

50/1

Yard can strike first time up in bumpers (12/62 with runners on bumper debut) and worth keeping an eye open for any positive signs in the market.

Form: 0778P6

Midnight Magic⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe

9/1

Yard have a strong strike rate with runners on bumper debut (20/89 | 22% strike rate) and worth keeping a check on the market for any positive moves.

Form: 06-

Puppet Warrior⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: L P Aspell| T: N J Gifford

12/1

Stayed on strongly at Plumpton on debut last time out behind a well thought of type and no surprise should he go close here.

Form: 2

Queen Of Dragons³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Miss A Galliers-Pratt⁽⁷⁾| T: A Ralph

66/1

Average debut run last time out at Hereford and would need to improve a fair bit to be involved in this.

Form: 7

Formal Request^t1²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: James Best| T: Mrs S Gardner

100/1

Trainer has poor record at track (0/12) and only one of her last 22 bumper runners has won. Hard to make a case for this one on debut.

Form:

Ikraamm⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: J McGrath| T: H Whittington

50/1

Never out of rear on debut at Towcester last month and watching brief the best option here.

Form: 0

Macca's Stowaway¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Houlihan⁽⁷⁾| T: M Sheppard

100/1

Trainer not renowned for bumper winners (0/14 since 2010) and hard to make any sort of case for this one.

Form: 977

Ben Pauling has an excellent record at the track with his bumper runners and as such CARLOS DU FRUITIER is of plenty interest here. Standard progress from Puppet Warrior will see that one involved here and impressive Ascot winner Kings Realm is also sure to be in the mix. 1. Carlos Du Fruitier 2. Puppet Warrior 3. King Of Realms
