Man From Mars was second on last month's debut at Exeter but was beaten a long way. Robin Roe has won a point-to-point and Dance In The Dust and Royal Supremo have been placed between the flags. Nicky Henderson runs Phobiaphiliac and Post War but both may need more time. Summerhill Boy is a full brother to a winning hunter chaser so should have a future under NH Rules but the Kapgarde gelding BEAU DU BRIZAIS makes most appeal of the newcomers as his stable won this 12 months ago with a similar stoutly-bred type. Alpine Secret and Hoke Colburn may be best of the rest.
