Brecharnon (G)
Made a winning debut in a Chepstow bumper for Tom Weston last March. Leading new stable acquired him for £95,000 the following month. Has a penalty to shoulder but he's almost certainly capable of better.

Arizona Moon (G)
18/1 and tongue tied, last of 10 in Hereford bumper on debut 37 days ago. The tongue strap is left off this time.

Eclat De Marvel (G)
[T1]
£100,000 Irish point runner-up. Dropped out rather tamely on his Cheltenham bumper debut in November but the fact he went off at only 9/1 for that listed contest suggests he must have been showing up well at home. A tongue strap is added n…

Ka Mate Du Brivet (G)
£62,000 purchase after getting off the mark in Irish points at the third attempt (Nov 2025). Sean Bowen rides and one to note in the betting.

Kappa Des Mottes (G)
£65,000 Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to French 2m hurdle winner Gamaline and dual bumper winner Martha Willow. Yard gets the odd bumper winner. The market should help guide to expectations.

Midnight Jukebox (G)
Saw off now useful hurdler Soldier Reeves when winning an Irish point last March. Changed hands for £135,000 after. Very interesting runner.

Smokehouse (G)

£100,000 purchase after an Irish point win last March. Joined a good stable with a healthy bumper strike-rate. Has to enter calculations.

Little Ruby (M)
Mondialiste mare. Dam, 1¾m-2m winner, half-sister to bumper winners/fairly useful hurdlers Black Ivory (stayed 25f) and Magic Wave (stayed 23f). Starts out in what could be a warm bumper so a watching brief is the percentage call.

Jamie Hamilton | M Walford | 5 | 67.6 kg |

| 6th | 10 | — |
Mac Gayveur (G)
Half-brother to 5 winners, including bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Aniknam and fair hurdler Grooveur. The stable is no stranger to success in these races so a market check is needed.

R T Dunne | T H Weston | 4 | 65.3 kg |

Pluto Star (G)
Ulysses gelding. Dam fair hurdler (winner around 2m), also 11f-13f winner on Flat. Stable 2-39 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons so it is likely she is best watched on debut.

Benjamin Macey | G Hanmer | 4 | 65.3 kg |

Sea Tempest (G)
€58,000 Affinisea gelding. Brother to fairly useful chaser Romeo Magico, stays 25f, and half-brother to bumper winner/useful hurdler Ruaille Buaille. Tom Lacey won this with a newcomer last year so this one needs monitoring closely in the …
