Brijomi Queen beat a useful sort on her debut at Kelso last season and probably needed last month's run over C&D. She has to go on the short-list while there will also be interest in Lingfield Polytrack winner Alphabetical Order and Teo Vivo, beaten less than a length over C&D on his debut under Rules. Cheeky Cherokee was third at Towcester on his introduction but Omani Rebel ran poorly under a penalty at Uttoxeter in September and hasn't been seen since. Biggar and Powderonthebonnet could be worth monitoring for future reference but we like the look of fellow newcomer REV UP RUBY on breeding. Peter Niven's mare is by Revoque out of a winning hurdler and the stable has a good record here with its bumper entries.
