23rd Apr 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Struggled (albeit on soft ground) when 33-1 for handicap debut over C&D five weeks ago and is effectively 8lb higher today, from out of the handicap. |

18th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Modest point form in Ireland; soundly beaten in maiden hurdles at 2m and 2m3f but he goes handicapping off a very modest mark, even if 3lb out of the weights, so may do better. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Back in prime form when winning from the front here (2m3f, good) last month and now 2-10 over hurdles; recent 3lb rise certainly doesn't look excessive, and he ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Defied this mark at Fakenham (2m4f, good) in October 2024; only four runs since but he returned after another break with a front-running third at Huntingdon (2m5f) three weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he's not ruled out on this drop back in trip. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |

Scored at Fakenham (2m4f, good) in October 2024 off 2lb lower and should be sharper following his first run for 12 months when down the field here in December; hood is reinstated along with first-time tongue-tie; possibilities. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Absent and had further wind surgery since his ready win over C&D (good to soft) on Boxing Day when proving well suited by the step up from 2m and taking record to 4-7; progressive and remains particularly unexposed at this trip; looks an ideal type for this assignment. |

0-20 and mixed signals all season over what his present optimum trip might be; staying on but no chance with winner when second at Warwick latest (2m, good), and this contest looks a shade stronger. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |

A stumble after four out was no help at Market Rasen but did finish well held and he's now 0-9 over fences and 0-19 overall. |

0-8 over fences and 0-18 overall; clear second to an improver over C&D (soft) in January and now only 1lb above that mark but hasn't quite been in the same form since; cheekpieces removed after one use. |

Fifth of eight on all three starts under rules in a bumper and two maiden hurdles; evidently has some ability but handicaps are probably on the agenda after this. |

Landed his third success over fences at Ludlow (2m, good) last month after his challenger fell at the last obstacle; up 7lb but still on the upgrade and should not be far away. |

1-1 here, that win coming over C&D (good; 18-1) in November on his penultimate start; not beaten far when fourth of six at Doncaster (also about 2m, good to soft) the following month and he's another who is firmly in calculations. |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from nine runs over C&D; will need a career-best off this mark, though, and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh (off since January). |

27th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

His three AW wins have all been here, the latest over C&D over Christmas off 3lb lower; could bounce back from a lesser show at Southwell. |

Has gained both AW wins at Wolverhampton but ran well in sole C&D attempt; got going too late last time (1m6f) and holds a fighting chance off current mark back up in trip. |

Second in three hurdles in early 2025 but is still 0-10 under rules; pulled up here (3m, good) 17 days ago on second chase start in first-time tongue-tie (retained); the jury is out at present. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Maiden; fine second to a subsequent three-time winner in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle in April 2025 (3m1f, good); hasn't done as well since, although not disgraced when sixth on chase debut at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good to soft); tongue-tie now tried; chance back up in trip. |

Second in three consecutive races over hurdles at up to 3m on last three starts last season; should improve on his reappearance run over hurdles (over C&D earlier this month); quite interesting on chase debut. |

Verdict
Olly Murphy was highly complimentary about INDEEVAR BLEU following his comfortable bumper success and he’s hardly flying high here on his hurdling debut. Hiero Sport did well to push a fair prospect close in his only bumper and he appeals as the other one with significant potential.[Alistair Jones]
