7/4

Mahler gelding out of a useful hurdler and made the ideal start when scoring at Southwell in November. Form looks solid and he's open to improvement, so definite player.

Form: 1

Gold Bullion⁶⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| D

15/8

€90,000 Fame And Glory gelding who was well on top at the finish when making a winning start at Warwick a couple of months ago. Looks well above average and should be up to defying a penalty.

Form: 1

Buck's Boggle

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: T Scudamore| T: T R George

8/1

£36,000 3-y-o, Tiger Groom gelding. Half-brother to a point winner. Dam, lightly raced over hurdles, half-sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 27f) Buck's Bond. Interesting newcomer.

Form:

Marty Time^t1¹⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: J J Burke| T: T Lacey

10/1

Nicely-bred individual who was quite expensive and showed something to work on when fourth at Newcastle 101 days ago. More to come with tongue tied now.

Form: 4

My Bad Lucy⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Davies| T: N J Gifford

18/1

Off the mark at the third time of asking in Irish points in October but down the field at Kempton on Rules debut, so perhaps more of a long-term project.

Form: 6-319

Pilgrims King

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

9/1

Sholokhov gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Prince Escalus. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stays 29f) Henllan Harri. Needs further on breeding.

Form:

Sam's The Man

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Katy Price

66/1

Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Dam, point winner, half-sister to ungenuine but fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Its Crucial. Likely to need more time.

Form:

Stans The Man

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Mrs L J Young

16/1

Milan gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdler (19f winner) Patsy Bee.

Forecasts

Firestep (7/4), Gold Bullion (15/8), Kilbeg King (13/2), Buck's Boggle (8/1), Pilgrims King (9/1), Marty Time (10/1), Landen Calling (10/1), Stans The Man (16/1), My Bad Lucy (18/1), Sam's The Man (66/1)

GOLD BULLION looked an excellent prospect when justifying short-priced favouritism at Warwick a couple of months ago and probably won't need to improve to follow up unless Firestep builds on his winning start. Kilbeg King, a winning pointer, is an interesting contender if he takes part.
