Bubblecraft, a winner on the Flat in the French Provinces in July, was due to make his hurdling debut in the 2.43 at Fontwell yesterday. Royal Toast showed ability in just two runs on heavy ground in Ireland this autumn but another import, Ruler Of The River, was unplaced in all eight starts on the Flat there. Rebecca West, placed twice in four starts for the Gosden's, has shown nothing over timber so far but MAJESTIC JAMEELA has been placed in all of her four runs over timber and won't find a better opportunity to get off the mark.
