0-4 in points but he won easily on his hurdle debut at Plumpton (2m, good) in October and followed up in a Grade 2 at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft); he's clearly a likeable prospect and he could make another bold bid.
Good-ground bumper winner who scored by 6l on his hurdle debut at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) last month and produced another big run when 12l second at Cheltenham (2m1f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; he bumped into a very classy prospect last time but may again be vulnerable.
Two-time bumper winner who was sixth in the big one at the Cheltenham Festival and is 2-2 over hurdles following wins at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) and Bangor (2m, soft); this is a much tougher test of his credentials but he's certainly impressed on his last two starts; could play a leading role.
11l win on debut in bumper at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) in March and also won with plenty in hand on both hurdle starts (2m1f/1m7f, soft/good to soft); faces a significantly higher calibre of opponent here but he's ante-post favourite for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle and has star potential.
Point winner who made a winning start under rules in a novice hurdle at Wetherby (2m, soft) three weeks ago, making all by 5l having been backed into odds-on; takes a steep rise in grade but it remains to be seen where his limitations lie and his trainer continues to enjoy an excellent season.
Won big-field bumper (2m, good to soft) on debut and fifth of 15 in Grade 2 here (2m1f, good) next time; built upon last month's hurdle debut third at Newbury (2m, good to soft) for 12l win when 4-9 at Doncaster (2m, soft) last time; he can win more races but others have stronger form claims.
Won at Perth (2m, good) in May on fourth hurdle start and handicaps there (2m, good) on next two outings; another good run when close fourth in Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham (2m, good to soft) in October but the limitations that were evident that day may be exposed once more.
Useful, four-time Flat winner who showed promise when third on hurdle debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month, albeit proving an awkward ride; has had wind surgery since; he would be a shock winner today.
