Highflyer Bloodstock's Anthony Bromley revealed a horse to follow for the Jumps season at Newmarket on Saturday.
Speaking to Lydia Hislop after the success of Hoseki in the British EBF Premier Fillies' Handicap, the leading bloodstock agent began by saying:
"[This season] we have Talk The Talk going novice chasing. They wouldn't be doing too much schooling yet with him, but he would be a lovely jumper. He's probably a two and a half-mile type novice chaser."
"Le Frimeur is with Harry Derham and won the Grade One at Punchestown last year, the idea is to go to the Stayers' Hurdle with him. Jasmin De Vaux missed last year with Willlie but the idea is to go the Stayers' Hurdle route with him."
Bromley then said: "We had a winner at Listowel last week called Green Hint. We've always had him in high esteem. He's from that same crop of point-to-pointers that we had with Talk The Talk and Le Frimeur, and we always had Green Hint very high in our estimations."
A five-year-old gelding, Green Hint is a son of the young well-supported National Hunt sire Crystal Ocean and was bought for €50,000 by Highflyer Bloodstock as a store at the Goffs Arkle Sale. A winner of his sole run between the flags, he then finished second for Stuart Crawford in the Goffs Defender Bumper at Punchestown in April last year.
On his first run for Closutton, he finished second in a Fairyhouse bumper on heavy ground before then winning by seven and a half lengths at Listowel two weeks ago after a break of 229 days.
Winning rider Patrick Mullins barely had to move a muscle as the grey stretched clear of his 12 rivals to win effortlessly.
