NR	Lord Accord Bay J:TBC T:Neil Mulholland	J: T:Neil Mulholland	160	tp	31296P	132	138	98	8d	—	—	—	22.5	—	—
Was never going on his return to fences at the Festival only eight days ago.

Took a backward step at Musselburgh and no obvious reason for that; has to bounce back.
NR	Good News Bay J:TBC T:Lydia Richards	J: T:Lydia Richards	145	v	-11414	117	139	113	88d	—	—	—	28.8	—	—
Won five of his last seven starts and it could be this 11yo is high in the weights now.
1	Zanza Bay J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	168	b	621714	140	141	21	20d	—	—	—	33.5	—	—
Unrealistically treated now over fences but that's not the case back over hurdles.
2	On The Blind Side Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	165	p	6P4-PP	137	-	-	69d	—	—	—	21.8	—	—
Has never been so low in the weights but has questions to answer.
3	Knowsley Road Bay J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	162	—	21-113	134	142	132	69d	—	—	—	21	—	—
Progressive novice; interesting handicap debutant on this rise to 3m.
4	Brinkley Grey J:Jack Tudor T:David Pipe	J:Jack Tudor T:David Pipe	161	p	1P3-9P	133	142	108	82d	—	—	—	20.8	—	—
Connections fiddling about with headgear and he returns after further wind surgery; risky.
6	Hurricane Harvey Bay J:Jack Hogan(5) T:Fergal Obrien	J:Jack Hogan(5) T:Fergal Obrien	157	t	P81153	129	141	126	21d	—	—	—	30.8	—	—
Back to best recent form when third over C&D three weeks ago and he looks a player.
9	Kilbeg King Bay J:Aidan Coleman T:Anthony Honeyball	J:Aidan Coleman T:Anthony Honeyball	153	—	11/161	125	137	120	46d	—	—	—	18.8	—	—
Only blip this season came in a Grade 1 and he might not be on a bad mark.
10	Phantom Getaway Chestnut J:Ciaran Gethings T:Kim Bailey	J:Ciaran Gethings T:Kim Bailey	153	p	222-13	125	140	73	93d	—	—	—	18.8	—	—
Assured stayer by no means exposed and possibilities back from a break in cheekpieces.
11	Loup De Maulde Bay J:Toby Wynne(5) T:Robbie Llewellyn	J:Toby Wynne(5) T:Robbie Llewellyn	151	p	121121	123	144	119	12d	—	—	—	40.8	—	—
Bolted up at Warwick and he's 2lb well-in with a penalty; makes the shortlist.
12	Skandiburg Bay J:Gavin Sheehan T:Charlotte Fuller	J:Gavin Sheehan T:Charlotte Fuller	150	t	-78556	122	138	116	42d	—	—	—	18	—	—
Not having the best of seasons, over hurdles or fences.
13	Miss Fairfax Chestnut J:Jonathan Burke T:Hughie Morrison	J:Jonathan Burke T:Hughie Morrison	149	—	23113-	121	141	100	384d	—	—	—	34.7	—	—
12-month absence is worrying but progressive last season; doesn't look on a bad mark.
