Verdict

MOMENT OF LIGHT was the best of these on the Flat, has joined a leading NH yard and gets 7 lb from previous winners Timely Salute and Hello Garda, so hopes are high that he will make a winning debut in this sphere.

4	Fairly useful on the Flat for James Owen, winning twice on the all-weather over 11f but equally effective on turf. Left one excellent yard for another and he'll take some stopping on hurdles debut. 1st Pick 4 Moment Of Light Jockey: Harry Skelton Trainer: Dan Skelton J: Harry Skelton T: Dan Skelton	100	-	-	-	63%	3/5

2	Maiden for William Knight but, having changed hands for 10,500gns, he created a favourable impression when successful on hurdles debut fitted with a hood over C&D in July, easing clear. More to come and he should take some stopping. 2nd Pick 2 Timely Salute Jockey: Freddie Mitchell Trainer: Max Comley J: Freddie Mitchell T: Max Comley	98	-	-	-	34%	2/1

1	Modest maiden up to 1¼m on the Flat who finished well held starting out over hurdles in a Stratford juvenile in June. Different proposition when springing a 40/1 surprise at Uttoxeter and the third that day has gone in since. Penalty to carry. 3rd Pick 1 Hello Garda (Ire) Jockey: Paddy Hanlon Trainer: John Joseph Hanlon, Ireland J: Paddy Hanlon T: John Joseph Hanlon, Ireland	91	-	-	-	20%	4/1
