Today, December 26, 2024BumperClass 22m

Despite clear signs of greenness DALSTON LAD was still able to run out a ready winner of a 7-runner Ayr bumper 2 months ago and, entitled to have derived plenty from that, Dan Skelton's charge is fancied to follow-up. Fellow debutant winner Old Blue Eyes and newcomer Is This For Real head up the dangers in the finale.

    Verdict
    €115,000 4-y-o, Ocovango gelding. Won sole start in Irish points (Apr 21) and maintained his unbeaten record despite clear signs of inexperience when taking 7-runner Ayr bumper (2m) in October. Open to improvement and he's evidently a useful prospect. Player.

    £26,000 3-y-o, £80,000 4-y-o, Vendangeur gelding. Dam unraced sister to 19f hurdle winner Sang Dolois. Successful sole outing in points (April 2024) and he's an intriguing Rules debutant for a yard who have enjoyed plenty of success in bumpers around here.

    Verdict
    €28,000 3-y-o, £75,000 4-y-o, Vadamos gelding. Dam unraced sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Real Milan. Won sole start in Irish points (Oct 19) and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant on debut for good yard.

    Verdict
    €70,000 3-y-o, Order of St George gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/chaser Dicey Rielly, stays 3¼m. Dam (h110) bumper/25f hurdle winner. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Apr 14). One to note on Rules bow for stable going great guns.

    Verdict
    Blue Bresil gelding who marked himself down as a good prospect when making a winning debut in 7-runner bumper at Sedgefield (16.8f) 30 days ago, leading under 2f out and asserting final 100 yds. Feasible to think there's better still to come.
