4/5

Fair maiden hurdler who stepped up on his comeback when second of 11 in maiden at Worcester (20f, good to soft) 21 days ago, giving his all. Looks sure to make another bold bid.

Form: 2/4P5-32

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson| OR: 82

66/1

Down the field in 2 bumpers (trained on debut by Olly Murphy) and largely well held over hurdles. Easily passed over at the weights.

Form: 658-U9U

Breezethroughlife^t¹⁵⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Lily Pinchin| T: N B King

4/1

Pulled up some outing in points but nevertheless offered something to work on sent hurdling in a tongue strap when third of 14 in maiden (100/1) at Killarney (17f, good) on NH debut in May. First run for yard after leaving Cian Michael Collins. Player.

Form: P-3

Order Of Justice^h1²²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Tom Cannon| T: Mrs S J Humphrey

2/1

Order of St George mare. Dam, pulled up sole start in points, half-sister to fairly useful hurdle winner/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Run To Milan. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (Mar 2025). Wears hood for Rules debut and not ruled out starting out at an ordinary enough level.

Form: F1-

Forecasts

Blue Universe (4/5), Order Of Justice (2/1), The Clonmel Kid (3/1), Breezethroughlife (4/1), Snitterfield (66/1)

BLUE UNIVERSE is still a maiden but he succumbed to only an unexposed hurdling newcomer at Worcester 3 weeks ago and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see him open his account. Breezethroughlife rates the main threat.
