Kateson⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr Tommie M O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: T Lacey| CD

7/4

Sets the standard here having made a winning C&D debut in October and has since run a good race under a penalty at Carlisle and not been disgraced in an Ascot Listed bumper. Has his sights lowered a little here still under a penalty though and may just need to find a little more.

Form: 127

Flemenstrix

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon

7/1

Makes his debut here with the yard yet to have a bumper winner this season (0/17) although there are some winning relations in the pedigree. Lack of success so far in this sphere for the stable is a little off putting but the market may tell a story there.

Form:

Remastered⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe

10/11

Yard have been rather quiet this year and are only 1/18 in this sphere (usually more successful that that). His form so far in three bumpers has been fairly useful when trained in Ireland with his best run coming on his last start for his former yard; chance but yard form slightly worrying.

Form: 26-2

Dawn's Little Lady³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Lee Edwards| T: Miss Sarah Robinson

100/1

The sole mare in the field she finished well held on her only bumper start so far at Exeter when a 33/1 chance. Faces a stiff task here and hard to recommend.

Form: 4

Kauto The King^t1

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: H Cobden| T: C L Tizzard

12/1

From a leading yard that have a very poor strike-rate in bumpers (only 4% over the past five seasons). This one cost €42,000 as a three-year-old and whilst the pedigree is reasonable given the yard's record in bumpers he's best watched here.

Forecasts

Remastered (10/11), Kateson (7/4), Potters Tale (13/2), Flemenstrix (7/1), Kauto The King (12/1), Dawn's Little Lady (100/1)

Not a particularly deep bumper and KATESON will enjoy the drop in grade and could well give away the penalty back over his winning C&D. Remastered and Kauto The King both represent yards that have poor records in this sphere this year and the main danger may well come from Potters Tale who made a promising start to his career at Ffos Las. Flemenstrix may be worth watching in the betting but his yard are yet to have a bumper winner this season.
