HS1434+2355 = RX J1437.0+2342

Not much known about this one, except that its spectrum looks pretty much like that of a dwarf nova, and it has been detected once at 16.5, about 2-3 mag brighter thant the typical quiescent magnitude of 19. Detailed monitoring is necessary to detect it in outburst, and trigger photometric time series to determine its orbital period.
