J.A. Wilson Contractors Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Settings

Selected odds by:

Pergamon^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| T: J Candlish| D

Fair Flat winner in who took to hurdles straightaway to win maiden at Plumpton 2 weeks ago, well on top finish. Penalised for that but should have more to offer.

Form: 1

Champ De Gane⁵⁰⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| T: W Coltherd| OR: 110

Fairly useful maiden hurdler/chaser who is usually thereabouts, though ran poorly on his first outing since leaving Stuart Crawford (sold £33,000) after 5 months off at Newcastle in January. Player on best form but bit to prove now.

Form: 23222P/

Kow Boy Sivola²¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| T: A M Thomson| OR: 107

Well held in a Perth bumper for John McConnell and just modest form when placed both starts over hurdles for Lucinda Russell. Off 7 months and has since switched yards again.

Form: 0/32-

Veer^t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| T: M A Barnes

Modest maiden on Flat for Charlie Fellowes and always behind on hurdles bow at Market Rasen 16 days ago.

Form: 4

Green Bonnet¹⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

£22,000 3-y-o, £20,000 6-y-o. Closely related to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Xcitations and half-sister to numerous winners. Dam, maiden jumper, half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser Helpston. Runner-up sole start in point bumpers (Dec 2024). Makes Rules debut in weak event.

The White Elephant^p1²⁵¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| T: S Waugh

Little form in varied events on Flat.

Form:

Zeezee^h²²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| T: Miss P Robson

Well held in bumper and both starts over hurdles.

Form: 78-0

Forecasts

Green Bonnet (7/4), Pergamon (2/1), Kow Boy Sivola (5/2), Champ De Gane (7/1), The White Elephant (66/1), Zeezee (100/1), Veer (100/1)

GREEN BONNET might be good enough to make a winning start in a weak event. Hurdles debut winner Pergamon is the obvious threat under a penalty, while Champ de Gane is also capable given what he showed in Ireland.
