Doctor Blue (G)
FAV
[T]
A fairly useful bumper winner who made a highly promising start in this sphere when runner-up in 2m Cheltenham Grade 2 in October. Tongue tied when going one better in 3-runner conditions event at Ascot (15.7f, good) 38 days ago. The clear…

Draco Malfoy (G)
Showed some fair form in bumpers and he opened his account in good style on his hurdling bow in 12-runner novice at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft) 22 days ago. Big player here with more to offer.

Get On George (G)
Got off the mark over hurdles at Wetherby in November and backed it up with a good fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Newcastle (22f, good to soft) 30 days ago. This demands a step forward though.

Tiddesley Wood (G)
[T]
Built on hurdling debut promise when bagging 9-runner novice hurdle at Windsor (20f, good to soft) 36 days ago. This son of Sir Percy is the sort to progress so must enter calculations.

Hidden Target (G)
Showed promise when sixth in a Huntingdon bumper and again when fourth of 14 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (16.1f, soft) on hurdles bow 54 days ago. This step up in trip should suit but he has plenty to find on form.

It's Party Time (G)
€70,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Brother to bumper winner/fairly useful 2m hurdle winner Oldschool Outlaw. In the frame in Irish points but ran out latest start in April. Since had a wind op and not discounted on his hurdles bow.

Jackpot Cauveliere (G)
Easily beat only other finisher on sole start in Irish points (Nov 2024) and showed promise on his hurdling debut when fourth of 6 in novice at Warwick (21f, soft) last month. In good hands and no surprise to see him take a step forward.

Stagge Hyll (G)
Schiaparelli gelding. Dam runner-up in point. The betting can prove an accurate indicator.
