Runner-up on debut in bumper last February (2m, soft) and 4-4 since (good to soft/good), winning at Market Rasen (2m) this season on his first two hurdle starts; he's a highly likeable prospect but today is a much tougher test of his credentials and others have more substance to their form.

Daughter of Nayef made a winning start in bumpers over C&D in November and backed it up with a solid third in similar company at Ayr last month; in good hands and likely to do better still; a player.

Newcastle bumper winner in November 2024 (2m1f, good); fair form at up to 2m2f over hurdles; may improve up in trip, but more exposed than most.

Good-ground bumper winner who has made the frame on all of her three starts over hurdles; steps up in trip on her handicap debut and should give a good account provided she shows improvement.

Good-ground bumper winner who has run okay when fourth on first two hurdle starts (2m/2m1f, soft/good to soft); her form is significantly inferior to that of A Path To Ronda but she's certainly a place contender.

J: Conner McCann

T: Brian Ellison

Unexposed after only five hurdle runs but was unable to justify his market prominence when safely held on handicap debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in December and struggled in a Catterick claimer on Wednesday; 1lb wrong here; needs a good boost from the new blinkers.

Seven-race maiden; no impact whatsoever from a lowly base for handicap debut at Newcastle (2m1f; seventh of eight, beaten 21l) in December; off for 83 days since; rates as an unlikely candidate.

Only third of six when odds-on for a point bumper in December and was sold for £4,500 later that month; hood is now added on rules debut and he needs plenty of improvement.
