Irish point-to-point winner. 15-2 and looked in need of his hurdle debut in October. Should come on for that. Probably has each-way potential.
Has not yet threatened to win a race and will need improvement to get competitive in this field.

1/1
Heavy ground bumper winner in April. Ran well enough in a better contest than this on hurdles debut at Newbury. A likely improver who should be thereabouts.

Horse silk
11/1
Improved effort on his reappearance in a bumper here last month. Step up in trip should suit for this hurdles debut. Could pick up some prize money.

Pulled up in two of his three point-to-point runs and not easy to make a case for him on this rules debut.

3/1
Maiden Irish point-to-point winner on debut. Cost €70,000 in August. Closely related to a 2m/2m1f hurdle winner; half-brother to three winners. Dam well held in a bumper. In good hands and can probably make good debut.
8
Horse silk
40/1
Completed in just one of four point-to-point starts. 150-1 but made respectable rules/stable debut here (soft) last month. Not ruled out under 10lb claimer.

Has shown next to nothing so far. Can only watch.
Dual bumper winner who is related to a number of winners over hurdles. Looks a useful recruit to this sphere and should be capable of being involved.

Third in a moderate bumper at Sedgefield in March. Well beaten on recent hurdles/stable debut at Newcastle. Not easy to fancy.

The Con Man and Paper Promise are both very interesting newcomers who could go well here, but the experience of GARRETTSTOWN sways the verdict his way. Ain't My Fault, Huntsmans Jog and The Sting are others to consider.
  1. Garrettstown
  2. The Con Man
  3. Paper Promise
