78,000euros 3yo; first foal; dam bumper/2m4f hurdle winner, out of bumper and smart 2m-2m6f hurdle/chase winner Blazing Tempo, family of top-class jumper Danoli; market can guide on this debut.
28-1 and fell midrace on hurdling debut at Worcester (2m) in October; weak 18-1 but shaped with promise, despite mistakes, when second at Lingfield (about 2m3f, good to soft) the following month; open to improvement, particularly if his jumping tightens up.
Improved in three bumper starts so his hurdle debut at Cheltenham (3m, good; 11-2) in October, beaten 46l, was disappointing; drops in trip with a tongue-tie added and it's too soon to write him off.
Sold for 55,000 after a possibly fortuitous success in January Irish point; subsequently had wind surgery and now makes his hurdles/stable debut in a tongue-tie; respected from a yard going well.
Showed promise with fifth of 18 in bumper at the Punchestown festival (2m, yielding); beaten 12l when third on his hurdle debut at Sandown (2m, good to soft) last month but he lost a shoe and that form's working out; related to Champion French stayer Questarabad and he's a big player up in trip.
Won a Worcester bumper (good) on his rules and stable debut in October and it was a tidy event he finished fourth in on hurdles debut at Warwick (good to soft) three weeks ago; this step up in trip might suit and he's much respected.
22,000euros foal; fifth foal; half-brother to 3m chase winner Best Trition; unraced dam closely related to bumper and 2m1f-2m6f hurdle/chase winner Sizing Santiago, half-sister to 2m5f-4m hurdle/high-class chase winner Take The Stand; watch the market on this debut.
Dual Irish point winner in the spring who cost 30,000euros in April and ran respectably in two bumpers for David O'Brien subsequently; not ruled out on this British, hurdling and stable debut.
