Aqua Bleu (G)
FAV
From a good family and has made a promising start, finishing runner-up on hurdles debut at Hereford prior to going one better at Doncaster (looked set to claim leader when left in front 2 out). Strong claims to follow up under a penalty.

Callero (G)
€10,000 3-y-o, Waldgeist gelding. Dam, lightly raced on Flat, half-sister to 15f-17f hurdle winner abroad Sopran. Showed nothing on debut when pulled up at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) earlier this month. Plenty to prove.

Network Rgb (G)
Stoutly bred sort seemed backward on debut and offered a bit more when fourth (4½ lengths behind stablemate Network Gold) at Wincanton last month. Looks to be being brought along gradually and is probably one for handicaps over further.

Pink 'n Purple (G)
Hail from family his yard know well (half-brother to useful hurdler The Pink'n, stayed 21f) and hinted at ability when (14/1) midfield in a Wincanton bumper on debut last month. Could take a step forward now sent hurdling.
