Apollon Forlonge
75,000euros 2yo from the family of high-class Irish jumper Asterion Forlonge; only four ran when beaten just under 6l into third at Exeter (good to soft) where he disputed the lead before getting outpaced; showed enough to merit serious consideration here.

Darlson
Only 11-1 for a Huntingdon bumper (good to soft) but never emerged from the rear; best watched for now.

Navarau
62,000 2yo; half-brother to Czech 1m3f winner Bathalola; dam French 1m2f/1m3f winner, closely related to 2m4f hurdle winner Marty Time; the only runner without experience but would be interesting if there's money about for him.

Half-brother to the top-class jumper El Fabiolo; shaped with promise when fourth behind subsequent winner La Luna Artista in a 1m5f bumper at Exeter (good to firm) and this gelding was 13-8, whereas his successful stablemate was 11-2; expected to be competitive.
