13th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Won 2m4f Down Royal maiden and better form in defeat in a couple of Cork novices' over today's trip; never landed a blow however on handicap debut at Navan last month in albeit much better race; down in class here so not one to rule out. |
7/1 |

10st 12lb |
Won a Down Royal maiden hurdle in September and two fine runs in novice company since; well-held in a Grade 3 over 2m4f here last time and will have to improve upon that even dropped in class. |
18/1 |

Very green when winning a good ground maiden hurdle at Down Royal in September; beaten in novice company twice since at Cork but looked more straightforward; place prospects here. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Well beaten/pulled up over fences on his last two starts but has each-way claims on the pick of his form over hurdles this season and Gregor Walkingshaw gets a tune out of him. |
16/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 4m 1f 56y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Wore cheekpieces on last four starts, to be placed twice over hurdles but not faring so well in two chases, including behind Val Dancer at Lingfield (upped markedly to 3m5f) last time; given wind surgery since and now has tongue tied first time; he's now 9lb below last winter's peak mark (even from out of the handicap) so has his chance if back on song. |

4th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-15 under rules; may have finished closer with a clear run when seventh of 12 over C&D last time, but others are still more convincing. |
20/1 |

19th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Modest maiden who was pulled up in 2m Musselburgh novice hurdle 11 days ago; he's hard to make a case for. |
33/1 |

8th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |

Modest Flat maiden and was 200-1 when nowhere behind Slugger at Kelso. |
200/1 |
Verdict
Strong market support for Irish point winner Whistle Stop Tour will put a different complexion on things but this will probably be fought out by the two last-time-out hurdle winners. Both drop back from 2m4f today and it’s not easy to predict which one with cope best with the forecast soft ground but PINYON JAY may edge out I Love My Baie.[Chris Wilson]
