Well Chosen gelding who made some paper appeal but finished well held in an Ayr bumper on debut. Will need to leave that effort well behind to feature.

Encouraging enough start to his career when third at Ayr in October, and each-way chance here if able to build on that.

7/2
Half-sister to fair hurdler Cancan and off the mark at third attempt when narrowly prevailing at Ayr (2m) in February. Early indications suggest that that form is decent and she sets the standard here.

Hasn't shown enough in bumpers at Newcastle and most recently over this C&D to suggest that he's capable of playing a leading role.

13/2
Dead-heated on the second of his 2 starts in Irish maiden points last year. Absence of just under a year to overcome on this Rules debut but warrants a second look in the betting.

Half-brother to bumper winner Coole Og. Intriguing newcomer and it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting, particularly in relation to stablemate Hierachy.

2/1
£105,000 5-y-o, half-brother to 5 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Violin Davis (2½m-3m winner). Successful sole start between the flags in December and very much one to consider, particularly so if the market speaks in his favour.

Horse silk
100/1
Achieved little first time up when mid-field in a Newcastle bumper (16.2f, heavy) last month and she makes limited appeal on the back of that.
|
Timeform
£21,000 3-y-o, Sandmason gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Exmoor Express, stays 2½m. Probably best watched on debut, unless the market indicates otherwise.

28/1
£30,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Half-brother to fair 2½m hurdle winner Martalindy. Yard boasts a poor strike rate in bumpers and this 4-y-o is probably more of a long-term prospect.

Forecasts

Speed Davis (2/1), Hierachy (7/2), Master Bricklayer (9/2), Heart Above (13/2), Marty Mcfly (13/2), Miss Maverick (10/1), Flying Sandpiper (12/1), Milan Park (28/1), Edgewell (33/1), Air Of Approval (100/1), Looking Splendid (100/1)

17:05 Kelso - 17 April 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

SPEED DAVIS fetched £105,000 after landing a maiden point in December and he is certainly one of the more interesting candidates in this contest. The hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. Hierachy is greatly respected and is likely to be on the premises. However, stablemate Master Bricklayer ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and he is second choice.
