Paddy The Deejay has won a couple of points and has had a run in a bumper. He'll try to make the most of his experience and goes on the short-list. Princeton Royale might need this but has shown promise while the Presenting mare Catwalk Babe should know what's required. TROJAN STAR also has a decent NH pedigree, however, and may prove the pick of the newcomers. He's preferred to Theo's Charm and the others.
