Elysian Knight
Showed some ability in his three bumpers and 2m4f Pumpton maiden hurdle; early days but he needs major improvement to beat some of these.

Johnny's Jury
70,000euros foal, 150,000euros 3yo; eighth foal; closely related to useful bumper and 2m3f-2m5f hurdle/chase winner Danny Kirwan, half-brother to winners Appreciate It (high-class bumper and 2m hurdle/chase) and Pilgrim Way (2m4f-2m6f hurdle); from a top yard and is very much one to note.

Beaten 31l in a bumper and 56l in a 2m4f maiden hurdle, both on soft ground at this track; best watched for the time being.

Juventus De Brion
Fell at the first flight in Grade 2 Persian War at Chepstow (17-2) on penultimate start and never threatened to justify evens favouritism with an underpowered display in a maiden there (again about 2m4f on good to soft) later in October; last February's third at Ascot is the best form in this field but a lot now seems to depend on the wind surgery he had in November; also now tongue tied.

Mountain Mike
Third in an Irish maiden point in May 2023 and second of nine when favourite for a maiden bumper at Southwell (2m, good) one year later; needs better but he has some ability and should have potential.

300-1 and failed to show much in a maiden hurdle at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) on debut one month ago.

Royal Rambler
65,000euros 3yo; half-brother to fairly useful 2m3f hurdle and 3m chase winner Pimlico Point; 28-1 for maiden hurdle at Leicester (2m4f, heavy; tired on run-in) early last month, held up and showing his inexperience but ending up 15l third of nine; work to do but he could be a major improver.

Tamarind Bay
Close up in two of his three bumpers and has made the frame over about 2m4f on all three starts over hurdles; two of those races were on soft ground; should be thereabouts again but probably vulnerable.

Followango
Heavy-ground bumper winner here; 0-7 over hurdles but finished either second or third in all of those races, rallying when beaten a head here (3m handicap, heavy) on latest, and has a leading chance in this one.

Hello Marie
Justified favouritism in three-runner Irish maiden point (3m, soft) in October 2022; sold for £60,000 soon afterwards but tailed off in a bumper at Hereford (soft; 7-1) in January 2023 and not seen since.

Jasmine Bliss
Irish maiden point winner who won in the mud last season in two of her three bumpers; turned over at 4-7 in a maiden hurdle at Lingfield (2m3f, soft) in November but the first two were well clear and the Henderson-trained winner has scored again since, in a Listed mares' novice event; can build on that performance, which already gives her serious claims.
