Sinchi Roca
SINCHI ROCA made a smooth transition to hurdling when accounting for a well-backed favourite at Wincanton 16 days ago and looks up to defying a penalty. Nicky Henderson saddles a couple of interesting runners in Ionian and Grand Teton. The former shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on his Rules debut at Kempton and has scope for plenty of improvement if the first-time hood has a positive effect, while the latter is bred to make a useful jumper and needs a close look in the betting.

A fairly useful bumper winner who probably didn't need to match that form to make a successful hurdling debut at Fontwell (17.7f) in November. Struggled in Grade 2 company at Sandown since but this is more suitable.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSandown Park2m 3f 178ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle5/5Fontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood to SoftHurdle1/8Aintree2m 209yGoodBumper10/15Sandown Park1m 7f 216yHeavyBumper1/7Exeter2m 161ySoftBumper5/12- 2Sinchi RocaJ: Charlie DeutschT: Syd Hosie12-291Age 62/12/115/8

£70,000 after winning sole outing in points. Fairly useful winner in bumpers and took well to hurdling when making a successful start in 12-runner Wincanton maiden 16 days ago.

Unplaced on sole start in Irish point but he was a short-priced favourite on that occasion and shaped better than the distance beaten suggests (raced too freely) when sixth of 11 in a Kempton novice (2m) on Rules debut last month. Should benefit from a first-time hood and will surely improve.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park2mGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle6/11- 4Grand TetonJ: James BowenT: Nicky HendersonAge 56/16/111/2

€100,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Roaring Bull and fairly useful hurdle winner/useful chaser Latitude. Very interesting newcomer for top stable but Ionian seemingly the stable's first string on jockey bookings.- 3The CistercianJ: Charlie HammondT: Stuart EdmundsU6313UAge 68/18/19/1

Left his Irish form behind to make a winning start for Stuart Edmunds in 2m Leicester maiden hurdle on heavy in December. Backed that up when third under a penalty at Haydock but was running below form when unseating his rider last at Fontwell latest. Needs to bounce back.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontwell Park2m 3f 29ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Hurdleur/12Haydock Park1m 7f 144yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/10Leicester1m 7f 113yHeavyHurdle1/7Galway2m 160yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Hurdle3/16Wexford2m 195yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Bumper6/14- 6Wispit TwobJ: Harry AtkinsT: Martin KeighleyF2Age 428/128/133/1

Built on the promise she seemed set to show on debut when second of 12 in juvenile hurdle (100/1) at Cork (17.3f, soft) 69 days ago. Subsequently sold out of Denis Hogan's stable for £26,000.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCork2m 1f 75yYielding to SoftHurdle2/12Punchestown2m 2f 132yHeavyHurdleF/14
