Drombeg Lad (G)
Promising runner-up in a bumper here a year ago. Has hit the frame all 3 starts over hurdles, fourth of 9 over C&D 3 weeks ago and he can give his running again.

Dunstall Star (G)
Telescope gelding from a family the yard knows well and confirmed debut promise when getting up late in slowly-run Exeter bumper in April. Hurdles debut didn't go to plan but much more like it when second to Skelton hotpot who has advanced…

Purple Owl (G)

[T]
Back on his game when second of 8 over C&D 3 weeks ago, running on. Yard been in good form for a while now and can make his presence felt.

Scoro (G)
Winning pointer but shaped like a long-term project on recent hurdles debut at Uttoxeter.

Sheriff's Court (G)
Dam sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Shemshal Flat winner in France who also won a handicap (1m) for Sir Mark Prescott. Stamina isn't guaranteed over hurdles but he's in very capable hands.

Delgany Second Now (G)
In expert hands but limited impact both starts 3 months apart and he's perhaps a handicap project.

Earnest Belief (G)
[PT]
A fair maiden on Flat for John & Thady Gosden. Failed to build on an encouraging hurdling debut third at Carlisle both starts since but retains some potential in this sphere if cutting out the errors.

Giant's Way (G)
[T]
€140,000 Walk In The Park gelding. Closely related to high-class but temperamental hurdler Labaik. Had a breathing operation prior to debut (tongue tied) when failing to meet expectations in a course bumper 3 weeks ago. Capable of better.

Sword Of Wessex (G)
[V]
Fairly useful on the Flat (scored at Yarmouth in April) and made a fair start in this sphere when second of 6 in novice at Huntingdon (2m) 37 days ago. Open to progress with that under his belt.

Walkingtheline (M)
From the family of a useful chaser and has shown ability in making the frame in a couple of Uttoxeter bumpers for Tom Lacey. Low-key hurdles debut in March 2025 but has since enjoyed some success in points for current yard.
