Neither Louis' Vac Pouch nor Master Majic got involved on their respective debuts in bumpers and a newcomer may well be good enough in this. Paul Nicholls' runs MOVEWITHTHETIMES and he may be the answer having cost 78,000 euros as a brother to the smart bumper and hurdles winner Venture Capital. Heluvagood and Notre Ami are also related to NH winners while Melrose Boy and Cruiseaweigh are others to note.
