Just Andy

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Ms E C Costello⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery

22/1

Dansant gelding. Dam unplaced sole start in points. Not an obvious sort on paper.

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 7/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (20f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Switches from hurdles to bumpers. Needs to up his game.

Form: 8-8335

Prove Yourself

10/1

Fast Company gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners on Flat, including useful winner up to 7f War Department. Dam 5f winner. Market will be informative for all that he's not really bred for this sphere.

Form:

Day's A Dawning

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr J H Williamson⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott

13/2

Soldier of Fortune filly. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler/winning chaser (stayed 19f) Grumeti. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.

10/3

€3,500 3-y-o, £42,000 4-y-o, Diamond Boy filly. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) Finger Onthe Pulse. Runner-up sole start in points (Apr 16). Interesting Rules newcomer.

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr J L Gleeson⁽⁵⁾| T: S Fahey

13/8

Once-raced maiden. 6/1, second of 8 in bumper at this course (16.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 18 days ago, running on. Warrants plenty of respect.

Forecasts

Switch From Diesel (13/8), Sharp Object (10/3), River Robe (10/3), Day's A Dawning (13/2), Prove Yourself (10/1), Mount Frisco (16/1), Just Andy (22/1), Dream Shaper (80/1)

DAY'S A DAWNING is from a good family and represents top connections, so she's likely to make a winning start for all that point recruit Sharp Object also looks a big player. Switch From Diesel is the best of those with experience in this sphere, so she can't be ruled out.
