J: Harry Cobden

T: Paul Nicholls

Brother to high-class Envoi Allen; all starts on softer than good; heavy-ground bumper winner who has not made a serious impact in his four hurdle races (bled from the nose on first two occasions) but showed his best form when beaten about 19l at Taunton (2m3f) on last two outings; looks set to face very different ground here but the step up in trip and handicap debut could reveal him in a new light.

J: Freddie Gingell

T: Paul Nicholls

Heavy-ground bumper winner who took a step forward when eighth of 13 over C&D (good to soft) last month on his third hurdle start; this race isn't so deep and he's a place contender, but he needs something extra if he's to come out on top.

J: Ciaran Gethings

T: Paul Nicholls

Began 2024 with two very promising runs (one win) in heavy-ground Exeter bumpers but wasn't seen again until two disappointing hurdle runs this autumn (2m/2m4f; bled from the nose both times); in good hands and still has plenty of time to get career back on track but comes with obvious risk.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Paul Nicholls

Brother to high-class jumper Envoi Allen; won heavy-ground bumper at start of 2024 and, following a long absence, had excuse (bled from the nose) when pulled up on last month's hurdling debut; remains a good prospect and features prominently in calculations.

J: Harry Cobden

T: Paul Nicholls

Brother to high-class Envoi Allen; runner-up in Irish maiden point in March 2023; ran in two Exeter bumpers on heavy ground early in 2024, making all on first occasion and good second next time; had wind surgery that April and not seen since due to a minor injury but, for such a strong yard in which he's still well regarded, he needs a close look.
