Tomorrow, April 23, 2025HurdleClass 12m7f

A cracking listed contest with MISTER MEGGIT the suggestion having shaped particularly well when heavily backed to the land the Sefton at Aintree 3 weeks ago, with his inexperience costing him at the business end. Horaces Pearl was a bit disappointing when surrendering his unbeaten record in the Mersey Novices' Hurdle but he may well get back on track, with Roaring Conquest another to consider.

    Verdict
    Dual-bumper winner who made it 2-3 in this sphere when landing a Grade 2 at Haydock (15.6f, soft) in January. That admittedly wasn't a particularly strong race for the grade but he's clearly going the right way. Upped markedly in trip but promises to stay.

    Enjoyed an excellent summer/autumn with 3 wins and also a fine second in Persian War at Chepstow. Resumed from a three-month break with a cosy 3m novice success at Musselburgh before finding the Albert Bartlett too much last month. Back in grade.

    Verdict
    Point/bumper winner looked smart prospect when showing plenty of speed to run away with introductory hurdle at Haydock (15.6f) in December. Failed to land the odds in Grade 2 at the same venue the following month and questions to answer after another lesser run after a wind op. Up in trip.

    Verdict
    One of the best around in bumpers last season, signing off with a Grade 2 win here and made a fine start over hurdles, toying with a last-time-out winner when defying a penalty at Newbury (20.5f) in February. Held back by jumping in Grade 1 company at Aintree but he can bounce back up in trip.

    Verdict
    Winning Irish pointer who made a successful start in this sphere in 2m4f novice at Ffos Las in November. Not disgraced when a well-held fourth of 6 in River Don Novices' Hurdle at Doncaster and fared as well as could be expected when sixth in the Albert Bartlett.

    Verdict
    Looked a good prospect in winning his only outing in bumpers for Nicky Richards and did so again in making a successful start over hurdles upped in trip at Newcastle (20.3f) 10 months later. Lost his unbeaten record when turned over at cramped odds at Ayr since and this a big ask.

    Verdict
    Runner-up sole outing in bumpers in France for Francois Nicolle and created a huge impression starting out for powerful connections when making all in 13-runner maiden at Fairyhouse (16.2f) 16 months on. Seemed to find the Grade 1 Turners Novices' Hurdle too much last time but he retains potential.

    Verdict
    Looked very good when winning first 2 bumpers. Suffered interference when well beaten in a Grade 2 bumper final start but made a winning hurdling debut in stylish fashion back at Aintree in the autumn. Tongue tied and shaped best when fourth in the Sefton, making a bad late mistake. Smart prospect.

    Verdict
    Off mark in Irish points at third attempt and confirmed the promise of his hurdling debut when winning 12-runner maiden at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) in December, leading 2 out and soon clear. Up in grade and shaped nicely when third in the Grade 2 Prestige Hurdle upped to 3m in February.

    Fairly useful hurdler. Respectable 16¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Mr Percy in Easter Festival Novices' Hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, good, 13/2) 17 days ago. In top hands but jolt of progress required upped to 3m.

    Verdict
    Made it 6 wins on the spin in listed hurdle at Galway (2m) in July. Has proven more miss than hit since, however a tongue tie seemed to do plenty for her as she more than arrested the slide when landing 3-runner novice at Ayr 11 days ago.
