Allo Allo⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: T J O'Brien| T: Mrs F Kehoe

50/1

Runner-up on third and most recent start between the flags in November. Still, he makes limited appeal on this Rules debut.

Form: P62

American Legacy¹⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex

7/1

Decisive winner of an Irish maiden point on debut in September. Joined a respected yard and one to note in the betting starting out under Rules here.

Form: 1

Bricklagger²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Adam Wedge| T: Miss E C Lavelle

66/1

Merely hinted at ability on Ludlow debut, but there were very few positives to glean from his subsequent display at Doncaster.

Form: 79

Dads Legacy⁴¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: R T Dunne| T: Ian Williams

28/1

Hood when beaten a long way on debut in Uttoxeter bumper in December 2019. Absent since and he's hard to warm to.

Form: 6-

Grosvenor Court³⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

28/1

Appealing pedigree and in good hands, but failed to justify market support starting out in a Market Rasen bumper last February, finishing nearer last than first.

Form: 6-

Lelantos²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson

17/2

€40,000 3-y-o. Has looked rather raw in 2 bumpers 3 months apart, leaving the distinct impression that he's more of a medium-to-long-term project. Nico de Boinville prefers Diva's Mix.

Form: 35

Ozzie Man⁵⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

11/1

Not without appeal pedigree-wise and maiden point winner on sole start between the flags in December. Yard no stranger to success in bumpers and this 5-y-o needs close attention in the betting.

Form: 1

Diva's Mix³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| BF

6/1

Sent off favourite and encouraging start to career when second in a 14-runner Lingfield bumper (2m, AW). Probably wouldn't need to improve on that in order to play a leading role in this contest.

Form: 2

Southfield Megan¹⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Aidan Coleman| T: M Bradstock

100/1

Allowed a soft lead when fourth of 9 on debut at Newton Abbot last summer. Failed to build on that at Fontwell next time and she's readily passed over.

Form: 45

Larusso

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds

16/1

Doyen gelding. Half-brother to smart hurdler/fairly useful chaser Mister Miyagi and fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Worthy Farm. Yard 0-14 in bumpers since last April.

Form:

Season In The Sun⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

9/2

£50,000 Blue Bresil gelding. Ultimately well held when third in a 5-runner Haydock bumper on debut, but offered something to work on that day and likely to do better in time.

Form: 3

Phillipstown Ellen²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Mitchell Bastyan⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris

11/1

Quickened well to finish a close sixth of 12 on her recent introduction in 2m Lingfield bumper (AW), caught further back than ideal. Will be more street-wise now and she merits respect.

Form: 6

Stanley Stanley

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Megan Nicholls| T: P F Nicholls

9/4

Camelot filly. Dam, won sole start in bumper, half-sister to useful junior bumper winner Keys. Of obvious interest given the yard she represents and market check a must.

Forecasts

Stanley Stanley (9/4), Season In The Sun (9/2), Diva's Mix (6/1), American Legacy (7/1), Lelantos (17/2), Phillipstown Ellen (11/1), Ozzie Man (11/1), South Mountain (12/1), Larusso (16/1), Grosvenor Court (28/1), Dads Legacy (28/1), Allo Allo (50/1), Bricklagger (66/1), Southfield Megan (100/1)

It may be worth siding with OZZIE MAN, particularly if the market vibes are upbeat. He did the job well on his sole point start in December and his respected yard boasts a decent strike rate (around 17%) in bumpers this season. Diva's Mix has to enter calculations on the back of her encouraging debut, but Phillipstown Ellen put in good late work on her introduction and is second choice.
