Dwight K Schrute
£80,000 buy after winning a maiden point in February 2023; not seen again until 24l fourth of eight in a Fakenham maiden hurdle (2m4f, good) in January and took a step forward from that at Hereford (3m2f, good to soft) last month when a staying-on third of seven; drop back in trip is a slight concern but he's going the right way.

Gamblergo
Irish maiden point winner who was pulled up on hurdle debut in November but offered something to work with, having been given wind surgery, when fourth at Hereford (2m6f, soft) in January; open to progress but probably one for handicaps in due course.

John The Spark
3-9 in points; has struggled in handicaps off a mark of 105 in Ireland but not without promise in maiden hurdles (2m2f-2m6f) and showed best form when 10l third of nine at Fairyhouse (2m4f, soft) in January on final start for Ian Donoghue; has since changed hands for £8,000 and he's of interest on stable debut.

Lahinch Strand
Has shown a modest level of ability in his bumper and for current stable on two hurdle runs, all on soft; needs to find improvement for the longer trip but the better ground could help.

Ledders
Fairly useful in bumpers in 2022 but off 718 days before pulling up at Lingfield (2m3f, soft; 33-1) on hurdle debut last month; entitled to have improved for that and likely to make his mark over hurdles at some point given his bumper ability but probably best watched at present; tongue-tie added.

Maillot Vert
Bettered his British bumper form when switched to hurdles in autumn 2023, finishing third in two deep-ground condition contests at Fontainebleau (2m2f); 125-1 for novice at Uttoxeter (2m4f) two days ago, in touch three out but soundly beaten when falling at the last; probably best watched after that.

Sonification
A good-ground bumper winner who has yet to build on the promise shown in his novice hurdles (2m) since upped in distance and has been soundly beaten on both starts in handicaps this year; has something to prove at present but the return to maiden company on better ground could help.

Twist Of Fatecatch
70,000euros 2yo and half-brother to a useful winning jumper in France; has displayed some promise in his two bumpers but will need to improve for this switch to hurdles to figure; the longer trip should suit.

Brenda
Tailed off in two bumpers 12 months apart and pulled up on last month's hurdle/stable debut at about this trip; hard to make a case for.

Bradshaw
Bought for 8,000gns after finishing tailed off in a 1m6f maiden at Compiegne (favourite) in October on his only run for David Menuisier and pulled up on recent hurdle debut for this stable, in which he did plenty wrong; best watched at present.

Le Galli Bier
A five-race maiden in France but reached the frame over hurdles and fences; showed definite promise on first start for Gary and Josh Moore when finishing second to a potentially smart one over shorter here (soft) 22 days ago; goes back up in trip and, with nothing of that calibre in this line-up, he's the one they all have to beat.
