Blowers (G)
Very green when pulled up in novice hurdle at Chepstow on Rules debut earlier this month but proved a different proposition when running out longest-priced winner in history of British racing in an Exeter maiden (16.7f) last month. Task wi…

Starzand (G)
Wide-margin point winner who looked smart when following up in a C&D bumper in March and overcame inexperience after 7 months off to maintain his 100% record in a 20f maiden back here in October. Looks sure to be suited by a stronger gallo…

Bossman Jack (G)
FAV
Posted fairly-useful form when winning 12-runner bumper at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) this time last year and plenty of encouragement to glean from his reappearance third in a Warwick maiden (2m) 7 weeks ago. That form has been franked and he…

Emerald Breeze (G)
Reached the frame in a pair of 2m Chepstow bumpers at the beginning of 2025. That suggests he should have a future over jumps but he might be best watched this time.

Sun And Rain (G)
€13,000 3-y-o, Creachadoir colt. Dam, placed over hurdles in France, half-sister to dual Ryanair Chase winner (stayed 3m) Allaho. Never involved when eleventh of 14 in bumper at Hereford (16.2f, good) on NH debut 44 days ago. Makes hurdles…

Half Pint Daisy (M)
Well held in both attempts over hurdles 6 months apart last year and low-grade handicaps promise to be more her thing moving forward.

Silver Gale (M)
Third sole start in point bumpers but weakening when short of room in a Worcester bumper back in the spring. Best watched now hurdling after 8 months off.

Spring Serenade (M)
£30,000 6-y-o, Kingston Hill mare. Sister to fair hurdler/chaser My Gift To You, stays 29f. Dam unraced. Easy winner of sole start in Irish points and worth a precautionary market check on Rules debut.
