This pair could be worth following throughout the jumps season

"Flora Trevelyan is yet to finish outside the first two placings in her four career starts, including when winning a maiden at Salisbury in August by nine lengths. She confirmed the favourable impression she created that day when arguably an unlucky second to Natural Flair on her handicap debut at Newbury last time."

Citrus Star has created a positive impression each of the three occasions he has made the racecourse. In September the son of Broken Vow confirmed debut promise by winning his maiden at Pontefract and just last week he took another sizeable step forward when successful in a nursery at Windsor. While Citrus Star hardly looked thrown in on his nursery debut he still won with plenty in hand and is clearly a most progressive young sprinter. Chris Wall's colt look's sure to be competitive at a higher level and looks one to follow in 2010. C. F. Wall

Flora Trevelyan is yet to finish outside the first two placings in her four career starts, including when winning a maiden at Salisbury in August by nine lengths. She confirmed the favourable impression she created that day when arguably an unlucky second to Natural Flair on her handicap debut at Newbury last time. Her jockey, Adam Kirby, was mindful of the step up in trip that day and perhaps held on to the filly for a fraction too long. The daughter of Cape Cross was then forced to wait for room at one point and eventually finished best of all. She looks sure to win handicaps. W. R. Swinburn
