North Of Richmond (G)
£75,000 buy who was runner-up only outing in Irish points and went one better on Rules debut in Bangor bumper in October 2024. Also made a winning start over hurdles on return at Fakenham (2m) and advanced that form when third of 6 in 2m L…

Bamber (G)
Minor promise shown in a brace of bumpers last winter and again when sixth of 10 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, soft, 33/1) on hurdles bow 38 days ago. Can do better in the longer term.

Bespoke Tailor (G)
Fairly useful bumper winner who has quickly shown similar form when placed on all three runs over hurdles, second of 18 in maiden at Wincanton 29 days ago. This strong traveller may have more to offer yet. Player.

Bushstreet Bowman (G)
Held in third when fell last on hurdles debut at Hereford in November but he jumped ponderously early when a well-held eleventh of 13 in novice hurdle at Taunton (19f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Worth another chance.

Fire Warning (G)
FAV
Fair 17f Flat winner in France before posting a fairly useful effort when second in minor hurdle at Auteuil in October. Left Hugo Merienne for €340,000 after and rates a most interesting prospect for yard with an excellent record in this.

Gulf Coast Highway (G)
[H1]
Showed promise when a debut fourth in bumper at Tramore but came in last of 8 on yard/hurdling bow over C&D 16 days ago. Hood is reached for now.

Jacquetta (G)
Crystal Ocean gelding. Inexpensive purchase and went with no promise on October's hurdling debut at Fontwell. Lots more is needed.

Lejo Du Seuil (G)
Cheekpieces on when a promising hurdling debut second at Fontainebleau (17.6f, soft) in October. Changed hands for €70,000 since and needs considering for his new handler.

Painted Wolf (G)

Point winner but he has shown nothing in maiden hurdles at Windsor and Exeter this winter. Big step forward is required.

Mc'flo (M)
Modest form in a couple of bumpers and he didn't fare any better switched to hurdles at Worcester (2m) when last seen in September.

Square D'alboni (G)
Useful winner on Flat (stays 1m4f) for Ralph Beckett. Changed hands for 45,000 gns and must enter calculations now starting out over hurdles for top yard.
