1
Horse Silk Bibe Mus
French Flat winner (very soft) who won on his hurdle debut at Gowran (2m, yielding) in October then finished third of five at Down Royal (2m1f, yielding) behind subsequent Grade 3 winner Mange Tout; he's travelled from Ireland and is entitled to respect.
J: James Bowen
T: Ross O'Sullivan
3 3/1
2
Horse Silk Diamond Jim
13-2 when clear second on debut at Bangor (2m, soft) last month and the winner again had plenty in hand at Wincanton on Thursday when making it 2-2; improvement necessary in today's company but that's entirely possible.
J: Craig Nichol
T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero
3 22/1
3
Horse Silk Edelak
Off the mark at the sixth attempt on the Flat for Johnny Murtagh when wearing first-time tongue-tie and blinkers in Galway maiden (1m4f, yielding to soft) in July; no headgear for this stable/hurdle debut and Tristan Durrell can't claim his usual 3lb, but he brings lots of potential for his top yard.
J: Tristan Durrell
T: Dan Skelton
3 - 11/4
4
Horse Silk Lord
Won three juvenile hurdles in a row for Olly Murphy in August/September (good to soft/good) before £70,000 sale; heavy ground may not have suited on stable debut in Cheltenham Grade 2 three weeks ago and he could go well.
J: Brian Hughes
T: Donald McCain
3 14/1
5
Horse Silk Scarlet Moon
Progressive on the Flat and won in good style at Warwick (2m, good) last month on second hurdle start; showed some promise on soft ground on the Flat; open to further improvement in this code and could be a contender.
J: Ben Poste
T: Archie Watson
3 8/1
6
Horse Silk Treasure Planet
Considerable promise on both Flat starts in Ireland (including on yielding ground; unraced on softer) and he improved for October's hurdle debut to win easily at Ludlow (2m, good) last month; could be a player today.
J: Freddie Gingell
T: Paul Nicholls
3 15/8
7
Horse Silk Only One Blue
Fair maiden on the Flat for Richard Hannon; won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) on hurdle/stable debut at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in October and runner-up at Hereford (2m, good) since; however, this filly is probably vulnerable up in grade and Tom Broughton can't claim his usual 5lb.
J: Tom Broughton
T: Max Comley
