FIRST CONFESSION made a highly promising start over hurdles in a field of previous winners at Cheltenham last month and, open to oodles of improvement, he can make his second outing in this sphere a winning one. Milan Tino sets the standard on the pick of his form and is the obvious danger.

    Verdict
    Placed in listed and Grade 2 events at Auteuil earlier in his career and by no means disgraced when third to Sir Gino in a Grade 2 juvenile at Cheltenham in January. Below form both completed starts since, including in Group 3 back at Auteuil last month, but still sets a good standard.

    Verdict
    Bought for £140,000 after winning sole outing in points and made a highly encouraging hurdling debut when third in 8-runner novice at Cheltenham (19.9f) 4 weeks ago. Open to significant improvement.

    Verdict
    Expensive purchase after winning his second start in points and he showed promise in 2 bumpers last season. Type to do well over hurdles but this is a tough starting point.

    Verdict
    Cost six figures as a store and looked a fine prospect when justifying short-priced favouritism in a bumper in December 2022. However, very disappointing since, notably on both starts over hurdles. Has had a breathing operation since last seen.
