Soft (Heavy in places)

Trigg

Age: 4
Weight: 11st 9lbs
Or: -

Getaway gelding did well to come from further back than other principals and make a winning debut at Worcester in September. Open to improvement and rates as a clear stand-out under a penalty.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
15/09/25	Worcester	2m	Soft	1/10	Bumper

No Walkover

Age: 4
Weight: 11st 2lbs
Or: -

Poet's Word gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdle winner around 2m Laganhill. Runner-up on his sole start in Irish points and rates as the most interesting newcomer.

Tea Boy (Ire)

Age: 5
Weight: 11st 2lbs
Or: -

Diamond Boy half-brother to 3 winners, notably Queen Mother Champion Chase winner Put The Kettle On. Promising second in a C&D bumper on debut in the spring and he looks the main danger to the favourite.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
25/03/25	Hexham	2m 48y	Gd/Sft	2/7	Bumper

Hurlyburly (Ire)

Age: 4
Weight: 11st 2lbs
Or: -

£17,000 3-y-o, Shirocco gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Arvico Bleu. Dam, ran once on Flat, closely related to smart bumper winner Samain. Perhaps more of a longer-term prospect on paper.

Forever Louie

Age: 4
Weight: 11st 2lbs
Or: -

Forever Now gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Ryedale Racer and fair hurdler Lady Babs, stays 2½m. Market should prove best guide.

Ratemenow (Ire)

Age: 4
Weight: 11st 2lbs
Or: -

Fourth on debut in a maiden point in March and showed a bit of ability when third in a C&D bumper 2 weeks ago. This is likely tougher.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
07/11/25	Hexham	2m 48y	Gd/Sft	3/11	Bumper

Strathcatcha

Age: 5
Weight: 10st 9lbs
Or: -

Well beaten both starts in bumpers.

Date	Course	Distance	Going	Pos	Type
17/09/25	Kelso	2m 51y	Good	7/8	Bumper
27/08/25	Hexham	2m 48y	Gd/Frm	7/7	Bumper

Timeform Verdict

TRIGG was perhaps value for extra when making a winning start at Worcester 2 months ago and is expected to follow up under a penalty. The well-bred Tea Boy showed promise over C&D on his debut and looks the biggest danger on return, with No Walkover appealing as the likeliest of the newcomers.

Betting Forecast

4/5 Trigg, 8/1 No Walkover, 9/2 Tea Boy (Ire), 18/1 Hurlyburly (Ire), 14/1 Forever Louie, 18/1 Ratemenow (Ire), 150/1 Strathcatcha
