This looks a decent bumper with Jonjo O'Neill introducing the well-bred Doyen gelding Allelu Alleluia. Miss Lucarno is the first foal of a prolific hurdler/chaser who also won a bumper while ex-pointer Pilgrims Bay can go well on his debut under Rules. It Is I has only found one too good at Lingfield and Musselburgh while Modulus and Barranco Valley showed promise in their respective debuts at Southwell and Stratford. But King Kayf disappointed when favourite at Plumpton so we'll stick with RED SIX, who made all at Haydock and stayed on strongly. A penalty complicates matters but the colt looks a nice prospect.
