Captain Ivan⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: J Farrelly| BF

9/1

Huntingdon debut has to be considered a touch disappointing as he was sent off 2/1 but only finished fifth. Clearly thought capable of better and the experience should not have been lost on him.

Form: 5-

State Vision^t1²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon

8/1

Shaped with plenty of promise on debut at Hexham and that effort can be marked up as he was a bit short of room leaving the back straight. Capable of leaving that form well behind and should play a part.

Form: 5-

Bendy Bow

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: David Bass| T: M Bradstock

8/1

First foal, dam who was lightly raced in bumpers, was a half-sister to Gold Cup winner Coneygree. Stable capable of getting winners in this division so needs monitoring in market.

Form:

No No Maestro

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: L P Aspell| T: O Sherwood

4/1

Sixth foal of a dam who was lightly raced over hurdles and in bumpers. She herself was a half-sister to Earth Summit so this newcomer could need more time.

Form:

Trafalgar Boy⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

4/1

Showed a bit of ability on debut at Kempton in March when finishing fourth but did split a pair who have been well beaten since which tempers enthusiasm.

Form: 4-

Marilyn Monroe⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Aidan Coleman| T: A J Honeyball| BF

5/4

£50,000 buy after landing Point-to-point in Ireland a year ago. Didn't quite live up to market expectations when third at Plumpton in Bumper in February but should come on for that and was clear of the remainder.

Form: F/13-

Forecasts

Marilyn Monroe (5/4), Strike The Flint (10/3), No No Maestro (4/1), Trafalgar Boy (4/1), Story Of Friends (4/1), Hurling Magic (9/2), State Vision (8/1), Bendy Bow (8/1), Captain Ivan (9/1), Oscarsman (16/1)

A strong Bumper for the track to close the evening and the market should reveal plenty not only with Hurling Magic, but also the Suzy Smith pair. STATE VISION shaped with promise on debut and he looks capable of leaving that form behind with the experience behind him. Marilyn Monroe is another to make appeal and should make her presence felt.
