7/2

Milan gelding, Dam was a maiden who about stayed 3m and is a half-brother to formerly useful chaser Rathlin. Hails from a top yard who usually do well in this company so must be respected.

Form:

Frankie Baby

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex

3/1

€38,000 purchase as a three-year-old by Yeats. Family has had a fair few winners and is closely related to the useful hurdler/novice chaser Mulcahys Hill. One to take note of from powerful yard.

Form:

Karl Philippe

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

4/1

€70,000 purchase. Kentucky Dynamite gelding who is a half-brother French national hunt performer Le Tranquille and Dam was a winner on the flat (1m4f). Notable if there is market support, which usually is with horses from this yard.

Form:

Muse Of Fire^t1⁶⁰⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Lee Edwards| T: J GroucottWS

14/1

€44,000 three-year-old. First progeny of an unraced dam but did win on his point-to-point debut at Larkhill in March 2018. Has had wind op since then and wears first-time tongue tie for rules debut.

Form: 1/

Party Fuzz

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls

7/2

€70,000 three-year-old by Great Pretender. Dam was a winner over 3m2f and is a half-sister to useful The Bishop Looney. Close eye should be kept on in the betting.

Form:

Sendhervictoria's

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams

7/1

€28,000 three-year-old by Shirocco. Dam was unraced but half-sister to hurdler My Wigwam Or Yours (2m5f). Yard not the strongest in these contests and more likely to be a stayer in time.

Form:

The Garrison^p¹⁸⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Ben Jones⁽⁵⁾| T: G Harris

40/1

Placed twice in the pain-to-point sphere but made little impact when midfield in Stratford bumper (2m) in May. Makes first start for this yard but vulnerable to less exposed sorts.

Form: PPP2-27

Timeforadance²³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: B Eckley

20/1

Norse Dancer gelding for local trainer. Doesn't have the appealing pedigree and made poor starts to rules life when 12th of 16 at Chepstow (2m) in April. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Frankie Baby (3/1), Party Fuzz (7/2), Captain Biggles (7/2), Karl Philippe (4/1), Sendhervictoria's (7/1), Glassboy (12/1), Muse Of Fire (14/1), Timeforadance (20/1), The Garrison (40/1)

A contest which many unexposed sorts make their debut, preference is for CAPTAIN BIGGLES who has a smart enough pedigree being related to some graded performers and a yard whose bumper horses are normally cherry-ripe for their debut start. He could be hard to beat. Frankie Baby also hails from a powerful yard who tend to do well in this sphere but his pedigree suggests staying may be his game, while Karl Phillippe has an unknown pedigree this side of the sea and could be a dark horse to take from the race.
