Mr Diafoirus
French raider MR DIAFOIRUS showed enough on the level in his native country to think he can be a big factor now hurdling, so he could be the way to go. Mister Ursus, Marhaba Prince and Lipstick are the conceivable threats.

Multiple scorer on the Flat in France and, equipped with a first-time hood, didn't shape at all badly when fourth in a 9-runner Bangor novice (16.7f, heavy) on debut in this sphere. Improved on that when second at Leicester a month ago and type to go on progressing for his excellent yard.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLeicester1m 7f 113yHeavy (Soft in places)Hurdle2/12Bangor-on-dee2m 145ySoftHurdle4/9Nantes1m 3f 205yVery softFlat1/8Fontainebleau1m 1f 207yGood to softFlat8/11Chantilly1m 1f 98yStandardFlat4/7- 3Marhaba PrinceJ: Ben GodfreyT: Anthony Honeyball17-322Age 57/47/413/8

Fair bumper winner who was turned over at short odds in 4-runner maiden at Sedgefield (19.8f) on hurdles bow in December. Bumped into an improver when second at Wincanton a week ago and another bold bid is forthcoming.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWincanton1m 7f 50yHeavyHurdle2/10Sedgefield2m 3f 188ySoftHurdle2/4Newton Abbot2m 167yGood to SoftBumper3/6Cheltenham2m 179ySoftBumper7/16Wincanton1m 7f 50ySoftBumper1/10- 5Mr DiafoirusJ: Charlie DeutschT: Hugo Merienne, FranceAge 54/14/17/2

Useful form on Flat (stays 15.5f) in France, last of 5 in Group 3 last time. Sold from A. Fabre €25,000 in November and possesses the raw ability to be a big factor if taking to hurdling.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLongchamp1m 7f 90yVery softFlat5/5Dieppe1m 6f 201ySoftFlat4/9Saint-cloud1m 6f 201yGoodFlat9/9Saint-cloud1m 7f 90yGood to softFlat1/7Deauville1m 6f 201yGoodFlat5/8- 1LipstickJ: Kielan WoodsT: Evan Williams83Age 57/18/115/2

Looked in need of the experience on debut when eighth of 11 in a course bumper in November and much more like it when third switched to hurdling er Hereford a month later.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHereford2m 53yGood to SoftHurdle3/12Chepstow2m 16ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Bumper8/11- 7Stone ColdJ: Stan SheppardT: Matt Sheppard6560Age 540/140/150/1

Showed a fair level of ability in 2 Irish bumpers for Stuart Crawford but well beaten in a pair of hurdles for new yard. Likely he's more one for handicaps after this.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWincanton1m 7f 50yHeavyHurdle14/17Chepstow2m 16yGood to SoftHurdle6/11Thurles1m 7f 150yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Bumper5/10Down Royal2m 1f 79yGoodBumper6/10- 8YourcardismarkedJ: J.
