Today, BumperClass 12m

BUD FOX was impressive when landing a Punchestown bumper that has thrown up a host of subsequent winners back in the spring and Gavin Cromwell's 4-y-o is fancied to make a bold bid to maintain his 100% record on this return from 6 months off. Sinchi Roca, Chicker and Hawk's Rock head up the dangers.

    Verdict
    Walk In The Park gelding who was successful sole start between the flags in February and justified strong support when readily landing a big-field Punchestown bumper (16.7f) on Rules debut back in April. Looked useful then and he's a big player on that evidence back from 6 months off.

    Verdict
    Promising Frontiersman gelding who beat a couple of next-time-out winners when scoring on debut at Worcester (2m) in October and he didn't need to improve when defying a penalty in a C&D bumper 22 days ago, leading final 100 yds. Well worth his place in this stronger company on that evidence.

    Verdict
    Boasts a fine jumping pedigree and having been acquired for £70,000 after a point win, he followed up in Taunton bumper back in February. Matched that form when runner-up under a penalty at Chepstow in the spring and that form gives him sound claims on return.

    Clovis du Berlais gelding who made a bright start in making the placings both starts this summer, matching debut form in a first-time hood when second of 18 in bumper at Listowel (2m) 52 days ago. Each-way possibilities with Harry Cobden an eye-catching booking.

    Court Cave gelding who made frame on second of 2 starts in points and confirmed promise of his debut bumper fourth to some tune when a dominant winner of a 10-runner Roscommon bumper (15.6f) 7 weeks ago. Could well do better again on that evidence now starting out for new yard.

    Verdict
    Poet's Word gelding who is bred to be useful and whilst he couldn't justify strong support, he still produced a promising first effort when second of 6 in bumper at Wetherby (2m, good) in March. Has plenty about him physically and there's surely more to come this campaign.

    Verdict
    Irish raider gelding who showed plenty to work on in 2 starts earlier this year, building on his Wexford debut fifth when finishing a very good second of 16 in bumper at Galway (18f) in July. Since joined Shark Hanlon and a good test at this shorter trip could well see him to good effect.

    €62,000 3-y-o, £100,000 5-y-o, Masked Marvel gelding. Dam, raced once over hurdles in France, half-sister to French hurdler (17f winner) Madiran out of French chaser (21f winner) Fleche Restee. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Mar 2025) and he's one to note on bumper debut.

    Verdict
    Masked Marvel gelding who was sent off at long odds but did best of the newcomers despite showing inexperience off the bridle when 6¼ lengths fifth of 11 to Chicker in a C&D bumper (good to soft) 22 days ago. Likely he can build on that.

    Verdict
    Telescope gelding who is a mix on pedigree but he showed ability amidst inexperience from a less-than-ideal position when second of 11 in bumper at Newton Abbot (16.8f, soft) 18 days ago, keeping on. Feasible to think he can build on that initial effort but this a much deeper contest.

    €15,000 half-brother to numerous winners and encouraging he showed more than first time up when third of 8 in bumper at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 32 days ago, albeit able to dictate. This will demand a significant step forward if he's to feature prominently.

    Dubawi gelding who improved with each start for Shark Hanlon last year, gamely off the mark at third attempt in 7-runner bumper at Sedgefield (16.8f). Off 13 months ahead of this yard debut with connections now opting for blinkers. Market may prove a useful guide.

    Verdict
    Displayed a nice turn of foot when landing an 11-runner bumper at Newcastle (16.7f) on debut in April and improved on that form in defeat since, off 5 months prior to finishing a respectable third of 5 in bumper at Hexham (16.2f) 5 weeks ago. This requires a further step forward now, however.
