Allfor (G)
Half-brother to fairly useful 19f hurdle winner Burton Boru and fair hurdler Lucky Viv. Runner-up sole start in Irish points last March but he didn't show much in the way of immediate promise on Rules debut in a bumper here last month. One…

All One Word (G)
Took a long time to make his Rules debut after being placed in an Irish point in April 2023, looking very much a stayer when a tailed-off sixth of 14 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter in January. Similar display at Kelso next time and he's pro…

Betteryouthanme (G)
Little impact in points and he's hard to warm to starting out under Rules here. Yard also saddles Cavalry Call.

Cavalry Call (G)
Fair handicapper at best on the Flat (stays 11.5f) for the Crisfords, but little impact for current stable in that sphere. Probably best watched now switched to hurdles.

Dahab (G)
Fairly useful maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m) but recent efforts in that sphere have lacked spark and he was well held on sole previous start over hurdles in October 2024.

Dublinofficecallin (G)
Encouraging debut bumper fourth at Catterick in December but has failed to build on that since, making little impact on recent hurdles debut.

Hourman (G)
Showed some promise when fourth in a Hexham bumper on debut in October but it's been a struggle both starts switched to hurdles since and he's another who will likely be better off in handicaps later on.

Lance Les Des (G)
Yet to get his head in front from 7 starts under Rules but he been placed on 4 of his 5 runs over hurdles, including when going close in a Kelso handicap (16.2f, heavy) 3 weeks ago. Should be in the mix.

Largy Go (G)
FAV
Fetched £305,000 after winning an Irish point last March and showed plenty to work on making hurdling debut at Lingfield (2m, heavy) last month, finishing second in a 10-runner maiden. Big player with improvement on the cards.

Maiori (G)
Successful on second of his 2 outings in Irish points and the market should point the way ahead of this Rules debut.

Minutes To Spare (G)
€90,000 half-brother to useful hurdler Came From Nowhere and fairly useful hurdler Farfromnowhere. Dam unraced out of useful 2m hurdle winner Tramp Stamp. Likely type on paper and needs a close look in the betting.

Walk On Son (G)
Best effort when third in a Carlisle novice in October and left with too much to do when fourth of 9 at Newcastle novice next time. Perhaps shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest effort at the same course (said to have been treated for …
