Fairly useful Flat winner (stays 1¼m) for Andrew Balding but offered little all 3 starts in maiden hurdles upon joining present yard last winter. Can only be watched on return to action.

Showed some useful form in bumpers and promise when runner-up in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May. Not seen to best effect under a patient ride at Wexford (20.7f) since and he's one to consider back down in trip.

50/1
Fairly useful on Flat in France (stays 1¼m). Displayed some promise over hurdles last summer and whilst he can have a line put through his return effort at Kilbeggan when pulled up (rider lost irons) handicaps may be more his bag.

Style Vendome gelding. Fair form in bumpers, quickly back on track when second of 9 at Perth (16.2f) 12 months ago. Well worth a look now attentions switch to timber given his powerful stable. Engaged 5.23 Clonmel Thursday.

Having showed some useful form in bumpers, LITTLEFOOT has showed ability in a couple of spins over hurdles, that despite not being seen to best effect under a patient ride at Wexford in July. The type to do better again in this sphere, he earns the narrow vote to come out on top, with Minella Diamond rating the chief threat. Wisteria Bloom, who showed ability himself in bumpers last year is another to note on hurdles bow.
