Horses nominated recently by connections as ones to follow:

DELRAY BEACH

Winner at Hexham on Wednesday

Ferdy Murphy, trainer

"She loves this (heavy) ground and we will think of the Welsh National and those types of races now, she is certainly good enough to get an entry and she may creep in on 10st."

FRANCHOEK

Winner at Cheltenham on Saturday

Alan King, trainer

"He's totally different to Katchit - he wouldn't have the speed but is a grinder. We'll probably keep bringing him back here, or think about the Finale Hurdle at Chepstow."

HEDGEHUNTER

Willie Mullins, trainer

"He is in great form. He has not done any fast work yet but with the rain at the weekend he might start doing some soon. I'd hope to get two runs into him before Christmas and we'll then look at the Lexus and the (Irish) Hennessy. He will have an entry in the Gold Cup again but he will probably skip that and go straight for the National."

I'MSINGINGTHEBLUES

Winner at Cheltenham on Friday

Paul Nicholls, trainer

"We thought we'd try him in a better race and he's settled a lot better. He's got his act together and I'd say he'll improve again."

IMPERIAL COMMANDER

Winner at Cheltenham on Friday

Nigel Twiston-Davies, trainer

"The further he went, the better, although it was not much of a race. I should think we'll come back here for the next meeting now and he's a lovely horse - the type dreams are made of."

L'ANTARTIQUE

Winner at Cheltenham on Saturday

Ferdy Murphy, trainer

"This fellow will probably go to the Lexus Chase now - his owner lives near the track and I am sure he will be twisting my arm to run!"

MOON OVER MIAMI

Winner at Cheltenham on Sunday

Charlie Mann, trainer

"I think you've seen a serious horse and I've always been thinking about the Arkle. The Arkle is the obvious target."

NEWTON BRIDGE

Winner at Cheltenham on Friday

Gordon Elliott, trainer

"The horse will be finished for the moment - we are going to give him a couple of months off, but he could be a horse for the Topham Trophy (at Aintree) over the National course as he has won over fences before."

PAKINEO DES PICTONS

Winner at Hexham on Wednesday

Ferdy Murphy, trainer

"He looks like being smart, he did it brilliantly and he will go jumping now. He has schooled really well."

SNOWY MORNING

Willie Mullins, trainer

"He is in good form and I am happy with the horse. The aim is to get him to the Hennessy but he might not get in - it depends on what happens with the top weight (Kauto Star), but that is where we are planning on going."

THREE MIRRORS

Unplaced at Cheltenham on Saturday

Ferdy Murphy, trainer

"We were pleased enough with Three Mirrors, he made a bad mistake and ripped a shoe off but he ran on well. He'll go to the Boylesports Gold Cup next.

TRAPRAIN

Winner at Wetherby on Saturday

Declan Carroll, trainer

"We are pleased to have him and he was a bit miserable when he first came, but he is enjoying himself now. The Coral Cup at Cheltenham is the long-term target."
