Harvest Of Hope PK Foodbank Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Bumper winner who struck on 2m Cork hurdle debut in April. Back from a break with a promising third on Clonmel Flat debut 13 days ago and open to improvement back hurdling.

Placed in a pair of good-ground bumpers last season and should have a future over jumps.

Signs of only a little ability in a bumper and novice hurdle 10 months apart.

Imposing 5-y-o who belied odds of 20/1 when making a winning start to his career at Huntingdon (2m, soft) in February. Creditable efforts under a penalty on next 2 starts and should be up to making his presence felt in a race like this now hurdling.

Fairy useful middle-distance stayer on the Flat for Charlie Johnston but made an underwhelming start to his hurdle career when fourth of 8 in C&D novice (good) 16 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind.

£105,000 purchase after finishing runner-up in his only Irish point. Promise in a couple of bumpers in the spring, although Spectacularsunrise finished ahead of him over C&D on the second occasion.

Hinted at ability tongue tied when sixth of 8 in maiden at Southwell (20.5f, good) on hurdle debut in June but finishing tamely when a remote sixth at Worcester in July. Undergone wind surgery since.

In good hands but well held in 3 bumpers last season. Switches to hurdles after 6 months off. One of 4 from the stable.

Held every chance when falling at the last in his sole Irish point and progressive in bumpers last season, scoring by 8 lengths at Wetherby on final start. Useful prospect.

Third on bumper debut for Martin Dunne last October but ran poorly in 2 similar races the following month and remote sixth on recent C&D hurdle debut for new yard.

Modest form in 2 bumpers this summer. Likely outsider on hurdle debut.
