Tomorrow, HurdleClass 42m3f

MODERN MAN shaped with plenty of encouragement on his hurdling debut when third in a strong-looking maiden over C&D last month and, with improvement forthcoming, he has to be considered the one to beat. Brisky Dancer and Grand Vendetta are a pair of likely types of paper however, and strong market support for either would put a slightly different slant on matters.

    Jack Hobbs gelding. Dam (h116), 2½m/2¾m hurdle winner (probably stayed 3m), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Pyleigh Lady. Unplaced sole start in point bumpers (Mar 2025).

    Half-brother to 6 winners, including useful hurdler/very smart chaser Al Dancer (2m-25f winner, by Al Namix) and fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser Gold Dancer (17f-2½m winner, by Doctor Dino). Lots to like on paper. Tongue tie fitted for Rules debut.

    Verdict
    Bought for £30,000 after finishing runner-up on completed start in Irish points (Apr 2025) but showed only minor promise when sixth of 14 in a Fontwell maiden (17.7f) on hurdling debut 27 days ago. Probably one for later on.

    Verdict
    here were positives to glean from his debut third in an Exeter bumper for Rod Millman on New Year's Day. Has failed to build on that in 2 starts for new yard, though, and needs to raise his game now switched to hurdles.

    Verdict
    €140,000 3-y-o, Flemensfirth gelding. Closely related to a winner, and half-brother to numerous winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chase winner Lady Adare. Appealing newcomer for top yard and one to note in the betting.

    Verdict
    Improved from debut when chasing home the impressive Paul Nicholls-trained winner in an Exeter bumper in December 2023. Subsequent absence is a concern, but yard has been among the winners of late and it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting.

    £60,000 5-y-o, Milan gelding. Half-brother to smart hurdler Gwennie May Boy and fair hurdler/chase winner Cast's Tasha. Off mark in Irish points at the second attempt (Dec 2024) and shaped with plenty of encouragement when third in 9-runner maiden over C&D last month, rallying. Sure to progress.
