Gentleman Toboot (G)
FAV
[T]
Point/bumper winner who made a highly promising start over hurdles (on the back of wind surgery) when landing 8-runner novice at Newton Abbot (21.5f, soft) 37 days ago, despite late errors. That form is working out well so big shout with p…

Ahanaglogh (G)
Placed in both points but ran to only a modest level when fifth of 10 in bumper at Worcester in June 2024. Not seen since and a watching brief is advised now hurdling.

Tom Broughton | F O'Brien | 6 | 69.9 kg |

100/1

| 7th | 3 | — |
Air Apparent (G)
€22,000 Jet Away gelding. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 23f) Destiny's Gold. The betting should help guide to expectations on debut.

Charlie Deutsch | J W Mullins | 5 | 69.9 kg |

Anothermanicmonday (G)

300/1

| 12th | 5 | — |
Arnie Moon (G)
Fourth on Newton Abbott bumper debut in June but the form is only modest and he was well beaten at Chepstow 5 months later. Outsider now hurdling.

| 11th | 6 | — |
Can U Feel It (G)
[H1]
Made frame on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Apr 2025) but more one for the longer term under Rules judged on last month's Aintree bumper debut. Has a hood added now hurdling.

James Best | Christian Williams | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 9th | 7 | — |
Collanisi (G)
Shaped well when third of 7 in Fos Las bumper on debut in November 2024 but well held in a stronger race at Cheltenham 11 months later. Hurdle debut.

Callum Pritchard | B Pauling | 5 | 69.9 kg |

| 8th | 8 | — |
Dragons And Demons (G)
[H1]
66/1, made an inauspicious start to his career when swerving and unseating second in Fontwell novice hurdle last month. Hooded first time.

R T Dunne | R Walford | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 13th | 9 | — |
Jaffa Cake (G)
Second in bumper debut in March but comfortably held in another bumper and a novice hurdle since. Still early days but might be more one for handicaps down the line.

Beau Morgan | B Pauling | 5 | 69.9 kg |

80/1

| 4th | 10 | — |
Kilwaughter (G)
Useful in bumpers last season. Disappointing start to his hurdle career at Chepstow in October but he should be capable of better.

Sean Houlihan | P Hobbs & J White | 5 | 69.9 kg |

3/1
|
| 2nd | 11 | — |
Klub De Reve (G)
Point winner who was placed in a Newbury bumper and shaped well on his hurdle debut at the same course 4 weeks ago, weakening run-in as if the outing may have just been needed. Likely improver.

Paul O'Brien | Harry Derham | 5 | 69.9 kg |
3.25
9/4
|
| 6th | 12 | — |
Montrachet Fin (G)
100/30 seemingly needed the experience when seventh of 9 in Fontwell bumper on debut 6 weeks ago. Potential improver now hurdling for Harry Fry.

Bryan Carver | H Fry | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 15th | 13 | — |
Pacman (G)
22/1, struggling a long way out when remote sixth of 7 in 19.5f Chepstow maiden hurdle on debut 14 days ago.

Harry Kimber | R Walford | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 5th | 14 | — |
Phineas Bunce (G)
Reached the frame in both bumpers last season and showed promise again when third of 8 in Fontwell novice hurdle on reappearance 19 days ago. In excellent hands and should have more to offer.

Tristan Durrell | D Skelton | 4 | 69.9 kg |

| 3rd | 15 | — |
Tennessee Tango (G)
[T]
Decent bumper performer last season, including a win at Wincanton. 9/1 and tongue tied, shaped better than remote sixth suggests on Chepstow hurdle debut/reappearance last month, weakening having still been a clear third 3 out. Had wind su…
