16th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Promise on debut, considering he was novicey and pulled hard; built on that from the front last time, despite again racing keenly, and helps set the standard. |
4/1 |
|
4th 2 |
25th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
His jumping was novicey and he failed to settle when 22l third of ten over C&D (soft) on last month's debut; improvement is required and his pedigree suggests he may need further, but the form of that first run has been franked and he's in good hands to progress; not ruled out. |
13/2 |

3rd 3 |
31st Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Sixth foal; brother to triple bumper winner The Gossiper, half-brother to winners Shantou Prince (hunter chase) and Tiger Bay Lady (3m hurdle); dam once-raced sister to bumper/hurdle winners Baker's Bridge and Backtothekingsnest; has useful standard to reach on belated debut. |

27th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Needs to step up on maiden/novice hurdle form at about 2m (both runs on soft) as others have achieved more; handicaps the logical next step. |
25/1 |
|
4th 6 |
31st Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Closely related to very useful hurdler/chaser Caius Marcius; not given a hard time when sixth on debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) this month and is worth keeping an eye on with the future in mind but will need to take a big step forward to trouble an on-song Colonel Harry. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 |
14th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
26,000euros foal, 33,000euros 3yo; eighth foal; closely related to winners Caius Marcius (RPR 148) and Nimby (114), half-brother to Petite Ganache (112); looks the stable second-string with Brian Hughes riding Ballybeg Boss but it will be no surprise to see a big run on debut. |

16th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Modest handicap debut run latest upped to a near-2m7f trip which should have suited, though ground may have ridden slower than advertised good; likely of more interest once finding genuinely sound surface again. |
33/1 |

10th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won a good-ground bumper last spring but has made a very underwhelming start to her hurdling career, most recently when modest eighth on handicap debut at Kelso (2m6f, good) three weeks ago; needs to step up. |
25/1 |
|
8th 9 |
17th Feb 2023 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Well beaten on her three hurdle starts (2m/2m1f, soft/heavy) but she kept on well to win a good-ground bumper here last May and could prove well suited by the step up in trip and return to better ground on this handicap debut; interesting contender. |

11th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Fell on hurdling debut and well beaten the last twice, albeit showing ability on both occasions before weakening on heavy/soft ground; tongue tie goes on for handicap debut and he could improve if the going is less testing this time; interesting to see what the betting makes of him in relation to stable companion High Roller. |

31st Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Shaped with promise before weakening into fifth at Kelso (2m, heavy) this month, on second hurdle run, but will find easier opportunities than this in due course. |

16th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Not devoid of ability in bumpers but tailed off on hurdle debut over C&D a fortnight ago and considerable improvement is required. |

31st Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Half-brother to smart hurdler Indefatigable; displayed clear promise in all three bumpers but needs to improve to play anything more than a minor role on today's hurdling debut. |
