Idaho Sun (G)
FAV
Won his first 2 bumpers and progressed again when sixth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham, doing all his best work at the finish. Impressed when winning on hurdles bow at Fontwell (17.7f) last month (form working out well) and has stron…

Brookside La (G)
A 6-figure buy as a store and he's seemingly being brought along with handicaps in mind, again considerately handled when fifth in a C&D novice last time. One for the future, unless betting suggests otherwise.

| 3rd | 3 | — |
Count Adhemar (G)
Westerner gelding who finished mid-field in an Ayr bumper in January before a distant third in testing ground on hurdle debut at the same track 6 weeks later. Will need to improve on the back of an 8-month absence.

Sam Twiston-Davies | D McCain Jnr | 5 | 69.9 kg |

Lootenay (G)
Showed a bit more than on debut when third in a 7-runner bumper at Taunton (16.5f, good to firm) on final start for Tom Weston in April. Market should guide on stable/hurdle debut.

Paddy Hanlon | S-J Davies | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 10th | 5 | — |
Mooserwirt (G)
Successful on sole outing in Points and was prominent in the betting when a well held sixth in a 9-runner novice at Newcastle (20.3f) earlier this month. Worth a market check dropped in trip but probably one for handicaps later on.

Ben Smith | O Greenall & J Guerriero | 5 | 69.9 kg |

Noble George (G)
Runner-up first 2 starts in bumpers (soft) but unsuited by test of speed on previous two runs, latterly when 5 lengths third in a 5-runner maiden at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft) on hurdles bow. Softer ground may help him take a step fo…

Lewis Stones | J Candlish | 5 | 69.9 kg |

Onehundredneighty (G)
Well beaten on both starts in bumpers. Hard to make a case for on hurdle debut.

| 6th | 8 | — |
Peckforton Hills (G)
Got the better of Noble George/They Want Me to land a Carlisle bumper in February but yet to build on that, for all he needed the run/experience on hurdle debut at Ayr (16f, soft) earlier this month. Will do better at some stage and market…

Stay Hopeful (G)
Walk In The Park gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to winning hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 21f) J'y Vole and useful hurdler/chaser (15f-23f winner in France) Si Tu Viens. Got off mark in Irish points at fourth attempt (Apr 2025) and on…

Sweeper System (G)
Maiden pointer went with little promise on Rules debut over C&D earlier this month. Best to look elsewhere.

| 7th | 11 | — |
Thereyare (G)
50,000 gns 4-y-o, Jet Away gelding. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Apr 2025) and shaped as if needing the run when well beaten on hurdles bow at Uttoxeter (19.9f) 29 days ago. Down in distance and likely better off in handicaps.

Craig Nichol | O Greenall & J Guerriero | 4 | 69.9 kg |

Thesoldiersminit (G)
[H]
Well beaten on his only outing in bumpers and jumped none too fluently (soon behind) on hurdles debut over C&D 17 days ago. Hood retained and likely to need more time.

Liam Harrison | S Allwood | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 2nd | 13 | — |
They Want Me (G)
From a good family and was purchased for £70,000 after winning his sole Point. 5/4 favourite on bumper/Rules debut but perhaps needed the run more than expected when fourth (behind Peckforton Hills) in a 6-runner bumper at Carlisle. May do…

Vinnie O'Neil (G)
Pulled up in a pair of maiden hurdles prior to showing far more when a distant fourth in an 8-runner novice at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft, 400/1) last month. One for handicaps.
