The Price Of Peace (G)
Winning pointer who built on hurdling debut promise when easily landing the odds in 8-runner novice hurdle over C&D (good to soft) 29 days ago by 11 lengths from Times Are Green. Very much the one to beat.

Could Be You (G)
Placed both starts in Irish points in early 2025 but didn't achieve much in a pair of novice hurdles at Lingfield and over 2m here last month, making mistakes. Needs this marked step up in trip to spark improvement.

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) 46 days ago. In good hands and no surprise to see him take a step forward.

Pop's Folly (G)
Didn't show a great deal in a pair of bumpers and fared no better tried hurdling after 10 months off at Leicester 31 days ago. Engaged 3.50 Wincanton Saturday.

The Moonlight Man (G)
Malinas gelding who opened his account in points at the second attempt in January. Hinted at promise when 24 lengths fourth of 8 to The Price of Peace in novice hurdle over C&D (good to soft) 29 days ago. May do better still.

Taylor Fisher | J Tickle | 7 | 69.9 kg |

Times Are Green (G)
Left his hurdling debut well behind when 11 lengths second of 8 to The Price of Peace in novice hurdle over C&D (good to soft) 29 days ago. This fair bumper performer can't be ruled out.

H Cobden | Miss E C Lavelle | 6 | 69.9 kg |

Walk Of Faith (G)
Walk In The Park gelding who fetched €120,000 as a 3-y-o but came in only fifth of 7 in bumper at Carlisle (17.2f, soft) on his debut. Off 14 months since so has his fitness to prove now going hurdling.
