1	Hold The Note Bay J:Henry Brooke T:Ewan Whillans	J:Henry Brooke T:Ewan Whillans	168	—	4P15F5	110	118	80	25d	—	—	—	16.7	—	—
Won in December but no impact since and latest effort last month was underwhelming
2	Court At Slip Bay J:Mr William Easterby(5) T:Tim Easterby	J:Mr William Easterby(5) T:Tim Easterby	165	b	431461	107	120	101	26d	—	—	—	27.9	—	—
Quite impressive when winning in blinkers latest; 4lb rise fair and may prove hard to beat
3	Whos In The Box Bay J:Lewis Stones(5) T:Nick Kent	J:Lewis Stones(5) T:Nick Kent	163	p	-6FP91	105	117	91	36d	—	—	—	22.6	—	—
Ended lean streak when winning last time; up 5lb in higher grade but warrants respect
4	Westy Fox Bay J:Conor O'Farrell T:Micky Hammond	J:Conor O'Farrell T:Micky Hammond	162	—	08B-73	104	116	56	76d	—	—	—	13.5	—	—
Irish import who was third on stable debut; this longer trip should suit; considered
5	Aire Valley Lad Bay J:Ross Chapman T:Sue Smith	J:Ross Chapman T:Sue Smith	158	—	562102	100	115	96	36d	—	—	—	24	—	—
Closely matched with Who's In The Box on recent Carlisle running; enters calculations
6	Onestepatatime Bay J:Sean Quinlan T:John Wainwright	J:Sean Quinlan T:John Wainwright	153	p	-F3511	95	115	89	44d	—	—	—	28.9	—	—
C&D wins the last twice; 11lb rise for those two wins doesn't look too prohibitive
7	Sir Apollo Bay J:Jonathan England T:Sam England	J:Jonathan England T:Sam England	152	tb	416441	94	117	87	19d	—	—	—	23	—	—
Wide-margin winner in first-time blinkers 19 days ago but 11lb rise demands plenty more
8	Sight Nor Seen Bay J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Mike Sowersby	J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Mike Sowersby	148	t	P55PP7	90	109	-	14d	—	—	—	10	—	—
Only his third start over fences and has plenty to prove against some in-form rivals
