Blowers (G)
Very green when pulled up in novice hurdle at Chepstow on Rules debut earlier this month, but proved a different proposition when causing a 300/1 shock in a C&D maiden 14 days ago. Task will be to back that up turned out only 2 weeks later.

Sober Glory (G)
Won his sole start in Irish points and showed useful form in going 3-3 in bumpers last season, including a listed event. Impressive start over hurdles at Chepstow on return to action last month. Below expectations in listed race at Sandown…

Air Apparent (G)
Hinted at ability when mid-field in a C&D novice 4 weeks ago. Probably one for handicaps, though.

Arnie Moon (G)
Fourth on Newton Abbot bumper debut in June but the form is only modest and he was well beaten at Chepstow 5 months later. Always behind on hurdles debut at C&D 4 weeks ago and is hard to fancy.

Taylor Fisher | J Tickle | 6 | 70.8 kg |

Devon Paige (G)
Showed some ability when sixth of 11 in bumper at Taunton (16.5f, good to firm) on debut 35 days ago but will likely need a huge step forward to make winning hurdles debut.

Dino Moon (G)
Last in a 6-runner Ascot bumper in November and will need to show much more here to figure.

Gambino (G)
Gowran maiden winner on Flat debut for Noel Meade and ran a cracker when runner-up in a handicap there 4 months later. Potentially smart recruit to hurdling for top yard.

Manhattan Valley (G)
Off mark in Irish points at fourth attempt but looks a long-term project under Rules.

Nice One Eric (G)
Promise when in the frame in a Worcester bumper and encouragement again when eighth of 15 in novice hurdle (33/1) at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 34 days ago. Should do better, but perhaps over further and with time.

Tobi Kanobee (G)
Very little sign of ability in a bumper/points in Ireland and fared no better making hurdles bow at C&D in November.
