2/1

Fairly useful Flat winner and a brother to a winning hurdler. Confidence in his chance would increase should the betting vibes be strong with the hood retained on debut over obstacles.

8/11

Sent off at 100/1 when well held only start on Flat for Paul Webber last summer but much more like it over hurdles, third at Market Rasen before improving on that to finish second at Newton Abbot. That isn't an easy race to assess but he should be in the mix.

Form: 32

10/1

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m) seemed unsuited by undulations at Chepstow last start on the level. Never really a threat when remote third on hurdles debut at Stratford.

100/1

Modest on the Flat and not even at that level over hurdles so far. Visored.

Forecasts

Kalkaroo (8/11), Global Skies (2/1), Give It To Me Oj (7/2), Window Of Time (8/1), Masonbrook Meadow (10/1), Saucats (12/1), Postponed Legacy (16/1), Character Testing (18/1), Ortigia (100/1)

GLOBAL SKIES attained a fairly useful level on the Flat and as a brother to a winning hurdler, hopes are high that he will take to this discipline. Give It To Me Oj is another likely sort now tackling obstacles, with Kalkaroo probably the pick of those with experience in this code.
