Religous Cross (G)
Winner of sole start in maiden points. Promising second on bumper debut and still showed signs of inexperience when an impressive winner on hurdle debut at Taunton (19f, good to soft) at the end of last year. Better to come over this longe…

Step Ahead (G)

[T]
Fairly useful bumper performer who has made a very positive start over hurdles for new connections (purchased for £145,000) splitting a pair of subsequent winners at Warwick (21f, soft) and improved when game winner of 2½m Cheltenham novic…

Sunset Boulevard (G)
Shaped like a stayer in bumpers and relished the step up in trip when making a successful hurdle debut for Willie Mullins at Tramore (21.8f, good to soft) in May. Has since switched yards but is bred to be useful and should keep on improvi…

Betgoodwin (G)
Castle du Berlais gelding who has shown little in a pair of starts over hurdles, looking hard work at Ascot last time. Difficult to make a case for this side of handicaps.

Coumeenoole (G)
Point winner showed fair form to place in multiple maiden hurdles between 2½-3m for Paul Nolan but looked unsuited by the drop in trip when trailing the field on first start for Dan Skelton at Haydock (15.7f, 12/1) last month. One to note …

Fury Lad (G)
Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points but has shown little under Rules to date. Better off in handicaps.

| 7th | 7 | — |
Hillwalk (G)
Placed twice in bumpers and has offered something to work on with in-frame finishes both starts over hurdles, ridden with an eye to the future when well held fourth over 2m at Chepstow latest. Capable of better, probably in handicaps (yard…

Jaja Jimmy (G)
[T]
Standout effort when placed in heavy ground bumper at Exeter at end of 2024 but looks to be being brought along gradually over hurdles. One for another day.

Kiss Gold (G)
[P1]
Well held on bumper debut and still looked in need of the experience when 38 lengths eighth of 13 to Religious Cross in novice hurdle at Taunton (19f) on hurdles bow, going with little fluency. Longer trip/headgear should help but he may n…

Monansunu (G)
Pether's Moon gelding who merely hinted at ability in a trio of bumpers and went with little short-term promise on hurdles debut at Fontwell last month.

| 3rd | 11 | — |
Neon Dream (G)
Well-related sort cost £105,000 after decisively winning his sole completed start in Irish points and he showed plenty to work on when 3¾ lengths third behind more experienced Step Ahead at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. Likely improver who…

Padre Arthur (G)
Makes plenty of pedigree appeal and needed the experience when midfield on Newbury bumper debut. Given a sympathetic introduction to hurdling over 2½m there (12/1) in December and will do better at some stage for top yard.

Peter's Last Deal (G)
Third in a Hereford bumper/maiden hurdle but looked unsuited by the drop back to 2m there 3 weeks ago. This test will suit better and he's worth noting for each-way support.

Ned Fox | T Symonds | 5 | 72.1 kg |

| 6th | 14 | — |
Pop's Folly (G)
Little impact in bumpers/hurdles to date but did show a bit more when well-beaten fifth in strong 6-runner novice hurdle at Windsor (24f, soft, 200/1) 17 days ago. Likely one for handicaps.

Reckless Spending (G)
Cost 200,000 gns after finishing runner-up in sole Irish point. Showed ability amidst inexperience when third on bumper/hurdle debut but jumped poorly pitched into a 3m Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham last time. Isn't one to discount with sig…
