Aviewtosea⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Max Kendrick⁽³⁾| T: D Killahena & G McPherson

4/1

Put experience to good use when opening account in Carlisle bumper under this rider in November, looking held entering final 1f but getting up gamely. Strong claims under penalty.

Form: 72-21

Ahoy Senor⁷⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

15/2

Fetched £50,000 following wide-margin point success in November. This half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Snuff Box should have a future under Rules and is one to note in the betting.

Form: U-1

Everyday Champagne

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards

5/4

€36,000 3-y-o, closely related to fairly useful hurdler Cavalry Master. Yard, which also saddles Parisencore, boasts a fine strike rate in bumpers and market check strongly advised.

Form:

Fabuleux Du Clos³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: J Kington| T: S G West

25/1

Showed ability on first 2 starts, but well held over this C&D last time and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 3-55

Fortescue Wood³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Grant Cockburn⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander

12/1

Showed plenty to work on when third on debut in a 9-runner contest over this C&D last month. Likely to build on that and he's certainly one to consider.

Form: 3

Parisencore

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: R D Day| T: N G Richards

10/3

€32,000 3-y-o out of a 17f hurdle winner in France. Obvious type on paper and the market should be revealing in terms of whether he or Everyday Champagne is considered the stable first-string.

Form:

Faodail

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Ryan Mania| T: R M Smith

100/1

Limited appeal on paper and probably best watched.

Form:

K C Bailey

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Callum Bewley| T: A C Whillans

25/1

Norse Dancer mare. Half-sister to bumper winner/fair hurdler Corrieben Reiver. Will only be of interest on debut if the market vibes are notably upbeat.

Forecasts

Everyday Champagne (5/4), Parisencore (10/3), Aviewtosea (4/1), Ahoy Senor (15/2), Fortescue Wood (12/1), Fabuleux Du Clos (25/1), K C Bailey (25/1), Faodail (100/1)

The Nicky Richards-trained newcomers EVERYDAY CHAMPAGNE and Parisencore both make plenty of appeal and the betting should be revealing with regard to the perceived pecking order. As things stand, preference is for the former who has the assistance of champion jockey Brian Hughes. Fortescue Wood merits respect on the back of his encouraging C&D debut and Carlisle winner Aviewtosea also has claims.
