8/1
Appealing NH pedigree and improved on debut run when second in a Fontwell bumper in January. However, failed to meet expectations when fourth of 9 at Haydock in May and last month's hurdles bow hardly brimming with promise.

Showed a bit in bumpers and made a promising hurdling debut under a considerate ride after 9 months off at Hereford in November. Should do better given he's half-brother to yard's very smart chaser Cepage among others.

22/1
Two bumper wins but off the track a long time and having been pitched on deep on last month's hurdles debut, he showed little. This will reveal a lot more.

Out of a winning hurdler and displayed ability first 2 bumper starts 8 months apart. Backward step at Haydock but better expected now going hurdling.

Showed ability when sixth in a Chepstow bumper on debut but failed to repeat that effort in a similar event there next time and now tries hurdling.

Easy winner at Fontwell in November, only to be disqualified for recording a positive sample. Free-going tendencies proved a flaw again when third at Newbury on handicap debut in November, Needs to settle but sets the very clear standard.

Forecasts

Teddy Blue (2/11), Hunter Legend (15/2), Hourvari (8/1), I Hope Star (22/1), Jack Sprat (50/1), Rollo's Kingdom (125/1), Flemen's Tipple (200/1)

Verdict

TEDDY BLUE needs to channel his energy more efficiently to fulfil his potential as a hurdler but this looks a really good opening back in maiden company. Hunter Legend hails from a good jumps family and he seems sure to step up on his Hereford run, so is offered for the forecast.
