Today, HurdleClass 41m7f

Three-time point winner WOLF WALKER has shaped well to finish runner-up on both hurdle starts and he can go one better under more testing conditions. Liam Mera Kai has been knocking on the door and may again have to settle second, while fairly useful bumper winner Sinchi Roca could get back on track now sent hurdling.

    £70,000 after winning sole outing in points. Fairly useful winner in bumpers, well-backed runner-up in listed Cheltenham bumper in November prior to disappointing at Ascot last time. From a good jumping family and may progress now hurdling.

    Verdict
    Three-time point winner. Finished ahead of subsequent winner when runner-up at Hereford on return and again shaped well when second at Haydock (15.7f, good) last time, rallying late. Forecast rain should make this a more suitable test of stamina and he's one to be interested in

    Verdict
    Impressive bumper winner on debut in March and has made a promising start over hurdles, going as close as he has when runner-up in maiden hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) last time, only edged out in final 50 yds. Should give another good account.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful form to hit the frame in pair of juvenile hurdles in France last summer but made mistakes when well below expectations on stable debut/reappearance at Taunton 16 days ago. Headgear back on and too early to dismiss on just his second start for Paul Nicholls.

    Verdict
    Ulysses filly. Closely related to 2 winners, including bumper winner Noble Miss and half-sister to 5 winners on Flat. Has shown a bit in two starts in bumpers this season but will need to improve on hurdles bow.

    In good hands but looked one for the longer term judged on his efforts in a Fontwell bumper and Exeter novice hurdle (66/1) towards the end of 2025. Only considered if supported.

    Fifth in a course bumper on debut but well below that form on heavy ground at Exeter subsequently. Will need to improve for the switch to hurdling.

    Verdict
    Fair form in 3 Flat starts around 1¼m for Harry Eustace. New connections went to 42,000 gns and she did show an aptitude for hurdling when well beaten fourth of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Doncaster (16.6f, good) 17 days ago. Likely a longer term project.
