Tomorrow, HurdleClass 42m

It was hard not to be impressed with the way UPON TWEED came right away from an ex-pointer with winning form on his sole outing in bumpers at Newcastle and, related to above-average jumpers, he looks one to follow now going hurdling. Stride On is another with fairly useful winning bumper form who is bred and seemingly built for jumping, with Moon Phases the pick of those with hurdling experience.

    €60,000 3-y-o, Berkshire gelding who looked potentially smart when winning 9-runner bumper at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) on debut in February, impressively. Good hurdle prospect.

    Behind 2 subsequent winners on bumper debut and further boosted that form when seeing off 7 rivals at Newcastle in January. Bred and seemingly built for jumping, he's of interest now switching to obstacles.

    Made an encouraging start to his career when second of 10 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) in May, albeit well positioned. Goes hurdling now for new handler (has left Tom George).

    Fair in bumpers and similar form over hurdles, staying on gradually when fourth of 10 in maiden at Perth (20.2f, soft) on final outing in April. Drop back to 2m seems highly unlikely to suit.

    £30,000 3-y-o, £66,000 4-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Dam (h109), 3m/25f hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/winning chaser in France Aubane (winner at 17f/2¼m). Fell both starts in Irish points (latest Apr 2025).
