MIDNIGHT JUKEBOX (7) secured a good 0.75L victory on only career start tackling a point-to-point last March and now represents a new trainer. Runner-up on that occasion placed in the G2 Rossington Main Novice's Hurdle at Haydock Park. Worth considering. SMOKEHOUSE (8) also won on sole point-to-point start last March securing a 1.5L success. Two placed horses behind have been bought by notable connections. Potential. BRECHARNON (1) got off the mark under rules attempting a jumpers flat race at Chepstow winning by 1.75L last March. Now racing first-up for a new stable. Aims to remain unbeaten. ECLAT DE MARVEL (3) cannot be discounted providing first hurdle outing.
