Espoir Des Forges
Made promising start to rules career when placed in pair of 2m3f Warwick maidens (both on good ground) in the spring; probably won't be far away if still in similar form after 176-day break.

Far From Over
Won a British point in 2022 and an Irish point last year; should have a future under rules but this hurdling debut comes after a 543-day layoff and he has a fair standard to reach.

Grand Sabre
Belied triple-digit odds when respectable sixth in Newbury bumper (good to soft) last November but was well beaten on hurdle debut at Sandown in February; moves up from 2m today.

Murphy's Milan
Kept on for third on bumper debut at Exeter (good) in April and also displayed significant promise when fourth over C&D (soft) on last month's hurdling debut; ideally needs to learn to settle better but still considered each-way.

Nube De Trueno
Third foal; dam French Listed-placed on the Flat in France and a smart hurdler in Ireland; entitled to benefit from this debut experience but looks interesting on paper.

Prophesea
Won two good-ground points and a heavy-ground Exeter bumper for Leslie Jefford in the spring; raced too freely and was unable to justify good market support (13-2 from 33-1) when soundly beaten over C&D (soft) on last month's stable/hurdle debut but is evidently thought capable of better.

Seatoit
Joined Kim Bailey after two very promising runs in slow-ground Irish bumpers towards end of last year; weakened out of contention when favourite for Cheltenham bumper last month but could still have a good future over jumps.

5/6 |
The Bluesman
Delivered on earlier promise when winning four-runner course bumper (soft) by 14l in April; had wind op during subsequent break and is likely to make his mark over hurdles sooner rather than later; commands respect.

Tailed off in soft-ground Taunton bumper for Victor Dartnall in February; can only be watched on this stable/hurdle debut.

First foal from a three-time point winner; seems unlikely to meet the standard required on debut.

Fifth foal; half-sister to bumper and 2m5f/3m hurdle winner Little Else; dam fair 2m-2m5f hurdle/chase winner for these connections; newcomer from stable also represented by Seatoit.

Hill Of Scarriff
Joined Dan Skelton after winning soft-ground Irish point on debut in May; weak in the betting and soundly beaten in two hurdle races last month (2m3f/2m2f); always behind at Warwick yesterday.

Impressed in an Irish point in October 2022 but, following a two-year absence, had struggled on both hurdling starts this autumn, the latter at Ffos Las on Wednesday.

Second on Irish point debut in April and shaped very well before fading into fourth on last month's stable/hurdle debut at Exeter (2m2f, good to soft); realistic each-way claims if able to build on that recent effort.
