Lord Forlife (G)
Prince Gibraltar gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including French hurdlers Mondieu and Elfy James. Dam, 1m winner in France, sister to useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Jorobaden. Yard capable of readying a newcomer, so would enter cal…

| 2nd | 2 | — |
Red One (G)
Walk In The Park gelding. Closely related to smart hurdler/useful chaser Guard Your Dreams, stays 3m, and useful hurdler/chase winner Carys' Commodity. Very much one to note on debut.

N de Boinville | N J Henderson | 5 | 70.8 kg |

Short Sell (G)
£16,000 3-y-o, £40,000 5-y-o, Hillstar gelding. Dam, ran twice in bumpers, half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 2½m) Ch'tibello. Off mark in points at second attempt in March and has joined a leading yard subsequently.

Cameron De Fiacre (G)
FAV
Choeur Du Nord gelding. Half-brother to French chasers Canaille de Nonant and Leandro Nonantais. Dam unraced half-sister to French hurdler/chaser (winner around 2m) Chudamani. Noteworthy newcomer for a yard that does very well in bumpers.

| 6th | 5 | — |
Dernier Set (G)
£20,000 3-y-o, Bande gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including useful 2m/19f hurdle winner Good Ball and fair hurdler/chase winner Moonball. Of obvious interest on debut for top yard.

| 10th | 6 | — |
Horethorne (G)
Geordieland gelding who is bred more for stamina than speed and was too green to do himself justice when a well-held third at Exeter on debut last month.

Freddie Gingell | J Tizzard | 4 | 68 kg |

25/1

| 9th | 7 | — |
Meli Melo D'angos (G)
Joshua Tree gelding who offered little when eighth of 11 in bumper (11/1) at Hereford (2m, good) on debut last month. Will need to leave that initial effort well behind to play a leading role.

Beau Morgan | T H Weston | 4 | 68 kg |

| 12th | 8 | — |
Murphy D'oudairies (G)
€12,000 3-y-o, Kapgarde gelding. Dam, French hurdler/chaser (17f winner), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) Pacha d'Oudairies. Unplaced sole start in point bumpers (Apr 19).

| 4th | 9 | — |
Mysterland (G)
€50,000 3-y-o, Bathyrhon gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Ip Up, stays 2½m. Yard sent out an impressive debut winner at Warwick the other day, so strong market support would look significant.

| 11th | 10 | — |
Norff N Sauff (G)
€24,000 3-y-o, Saddex gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Quick Sharpener. Dam, unraced, out of half-sister to useful staying chasers Boychuk and Golden Chieftain. Market for clues.

Roy's Jules (G)
Mahler gelding who showed only greenness in a C&D bumper on debut in March. Probably needs more time.

My Lady D'ex (F)
