165,000 2yo; ninth foal; half-brother to six winners including connections' high-class jumper Al Dancer, smart Irish jumper Gold Dancer and smart French jumper Tzar's Dancer; dam unraced; tongue tied on debut; with that pedigree, he needs a close look.
Showed significant ability in bumpers, most recently when sixth on seasonal/stable debut at Cheltenham (good) in October, and last month's C&D hurdle debut (good to soft) was more promising than eventual 72l defeat might suggest; considered each-way.
Runner-up in good-ground Irish point in April and ran well to a point before weakening into sixth on stable/hurdle debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) last month; needs a good step forward here but that's possible.
Placed in soft-ground Exeter bumper for Rod Millman in January but both subsequent bumper runs for David Pipe were somewhat underwhelming; improvement required on hurdle debut.
140,000euros 3yo; seventh foal; half-brother to six winners including Lady Adare (useful bumper/jumps) and useful hurdlers Saint Bibiana and Sabrina; dam French hurdle winner; represents top stable; interesting newcomer.
Made the frame in two bumpers towards end of 2023, more notably when second to very useful rival at Exeter (soft); makes hurdle debut after two-year absence but good market support will make him of strong interest.
Irish point winner who is a half-brother to smart hurdler Gwennie May Boy and made pleasing start to rules career when third over C&D (good to soft) last month; that form sets a clear standard here and he has very obvious scope for progress.
Shaped quite well before weakening into sixth of 12 on recent seasonal/hurdle debut at Exeter (2m, good to soft) but others have much stronger claims here.
