Significant positives can be drawn from both his hurdle runs but he has a lot to find with the principals here and will probably be of greater interest when qualified for handicaps. |

20th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Useful Flat-racer when trained in Ireland and created good impression when ready winner of Scottish Supreme on last month's stable/hurdle debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, good); today's forecast slower ground may not be in his favour but, nevertheless, he needs to be taken very seriously. |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Three-time winner on the Flat in Ireland; made successful stable/jumping debut in four-runner novice at Musselburgh (2m, good) last month, readily pulling clear in the closing stages; penalty to carry and prospect of softer ground are concerns, but he is probably the one to beat. |

Useful performer on the Flat (peak RPR 99) for Jim Bolger, winning three times at up to 1m5f; form dipped on last two starts in 2022, then sold for 35,000gns; brings a good level of potential to hurdling and market support should be heeded. |

20th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winning Irish pointer who built upon a promising rules debut when drawing clear to win quite comfortably by over 7l at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) in December; already sets a useful form standard here and can probably improve again. |

27th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Half-brother to smart jumper Bright New Dawn; joined Evan Williams after winning Irish point debut in February and made promising start to rules career when fourth over C&D (good to soft) last month; if that run has brought him on, he's a major player today. |
7/2 |

2nd Nov 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |

Won on debut in an Irish maiden point (3m, soft) in February and changed hands for £160,000 later that month; this half-brother to classy hurdler/chaser Bright New Dawn brings plenty of potential to this rules debut. |

Second to a subsequent bumper winner on Irish point debut in October and kept on quite well to take modest third in Sandown novice hurdle (2m, soft) on recent rules debut; needs to take a big step forward to win this but is worth keeping an eye on with the future in mind. |

Out of a hurdle-winning half-sister to high-class chaser Master Tommytucker; travelled well and arguably shaped with more promise than finishing position suggests when fifth of 11 on bumper debut at Ffos Las (heavy) in January; should have a future over jumps; tongue-tie removed. |

Won a Perth bumper for Gordon Elliott on his debut in April but his form has gone the wrong way since including two runs for new yard this season; has questions to answer on this switch to hurdling and he's untried on soft/heavy. |
