€50,000 3-y-o, Beat Hollow gelding. Dam (c111/h110), 17f-3m hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stays 23f) Boreham Bill.
|
€90,000 3-y-o, Shantou gelding. Brother to smart hurdler/chaser Death Duty, and half-brother to 2 winners, including fairly useful chaser How About It. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.
|
Mahler gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Dollys Destination. Dam (h85) bumper winner. Wears tongue strap. Shrewd stable are likely to have him well forward for this.
|
Only ninth at Ascot first time out and much more will be required if he's to get involved in what looks an equally strong contest on paper.
|
Arvico gelding. Dam unraced. Not an obvious sort on debut unless the market speaks in his favour.
|
Getaway gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Indian Hawk and bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Melekhov, stays 21f. Interesting newcomer.
|
Champs Elysees gelding. Dam (h120) 2m hurdle winner. Others make more appeal.
|

|

Marvellous Mick (6/5), Helnwein (5/1), He Knows Better (7/1), Big Ambitions (15/2), Bohemian Lad (12/1), God's Own Getaway (14/1), Magical Escape (16/1), Idefix De Ciergues (18/1), Goodwin (18/1), Haston Clermont (18/1), Claras Soldier (22/1), Hoodlum (22/1), Atlantic Fleet (33/1), Exmoor Lad (50/1)
Paul Nicholls has been enjoying plenty of success in bumpers and he has another exciting recruit in the shape of Marvellous Mick, who is worth chancing to become yet another winning newcomer for his powerfuly stable. Idefix de Ciergues, who was runner-up in a point in the spring, is also worthy of respect and He Knows Better warrants a mention after his encouraging third over C&D first time out.
