Verdict
Jack Dillinger is the only one of these with an official rating having earned a mark of 127 with some promising performances last season including at Down Royal where he would have won but for unseating at the last. Peacocks Secret won a KIlbeggan bumper last month then just failed to follow up in a much stronger event at Tipperary so he can go well on his hurdling debut though it's difficult to get away from the claims of SAMCRO. Gordon Elliott's charge was purchased by Gigginstown after winning a point-to-point then won all of his three bumpers including a Listed contest at Navan. He could be an exciting novice hurdler this season and can start with a victory. Mind's Eye and Eviscerating are in the same ownership as the selection and the former in particular looked a promising type in bumpers last term while Wigs On The Green looks one for the future.
