Justin & Susan Greig Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Multiple winner on Flat who made a solid start in this sphere when fourth of 13 in novice at Worcester (16f, soft) on NH debut 20 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is one for shortlist.

Disappointed when last seen in March but made a winning start in bumper here last autumn and has to be of interest on return/hurdles debut.

Didn't progress from encouraging Musselburgh debut in 2 bumper outings earlier this year and looks down the pecking order amongst yard's 5 runners on hurdles bow here, judged by jockey bookings.

Twice-raced maiden who lost his action when pulled up in bumper at Carlisle when last seen 8 months ago. Best watched on hurdles debut.

Modest maiden on Flat and made little impact in a trio of hurdles outings thus far.

Failed to complete both starts in points but wasn't beaten far, albeit in a muddling race, when fifth of 8 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) on NH debut 72 days ago. This run should reveal more.

Showed a bit when fourth in a Fairyhouse bumper for Mrs Caroline McCaldin in November 2023 and was successful in both starts in Irish points in 2024. Probably needed the run, sent hurdling for new yard, when a well-held fourth of 8 in a 2m maiden at Worcester in August. Entitled to build on that.

Attracted support and made the frame in a couple of Ayr bumpers earlier this year. Looks the type to improve over obstacles and is the choice of Derek Fox.

Showed ability in a trio of bumpers last term and is part of a strong team of hurdling debutants from stable here.

Just a modest performer on level and below form in recent starts. Isn't an obvious candidate to take to this discipline.

Shaped like a stayer when sixth of 9 in novice hurdle at Perth (16.2f, soft) on NH debut in April and looks one for longer term.

Third on bumper debut for Martin Dunne this time last year but ran poorly in 2 similar races thereafter and hasn't threatened in either start over hurdles for new yard more recently.

Related to a trio of winners and shaped with a good deal of promise when third in an Aintree bumper on debut last November. Not in same form either start since but is worth monitoring in market on hurdles debut.
