Easy winner on AW last month (1m6f); not quite so good over 1m4f latest; drying ground a +
1 (7)	Candy Shack Bay J:Benoit De La Sayette(3) T:David Menuisier	J:Benoit De La Sayette(3) T:David Menuisier	135	t	9/42-8	79	88	80	34d	—	—	-5	12.5	9/2 18%
Promise last season; can leave reappearance behind her; now tongue-tied
2 (9)	Champagne City Chestnut J:Joe Leavy(7) T:B F Brookhouse	J:Joe Leavy(7) T:B F Brookhouse	135	p	4023-1	79	89	82	24d	—	—	+7	21.3	11/2 15%
Gritty front-running effort at Pontefract (2m2f, soft); 5lb rise fair but this is deeper
8 (8)	Havaila Chestnut J:Tom Queally T:Milton Harris	J:Tom Queally T:Milton Harris	131	—	4236-	75	88	84	—	—	—	+2	14.5	13/2 13%

Lowly mark returned to turf and latest AW run was more promising; not ruled out
11 (4)	Geelong Bay J:Mohammed Tabti(7) T:Paul & Oliver Cole	J:Mohammed Tabti(7) T:Paul & Oliver Cole	123	b	6543-4	67	90	65	18d	—	—	-4	7.3	15/2 12%
No win since debut; sharper for last month's return; drying ground would help his cause

Has won over hurdles but looks better on the Flat; conditions fine; could go well
NR (1)	Justus Chestnut J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	133	p	437-61	77	95	80	7d	—	—	-13	15.6	2 50%

3 (10)	Wilderness Bay J:George Downing T:Seamus Mullins	J:George Downing T:Seamus Mullins	134	—	4295-4	78	93	82	114d	—	—	+4	8.1	20/1 5%
Successful on fast turf last summer; looks high enough in the weights back from a break
12 (2)	Good Time Ahead Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Jim & Suzi Best	J:Rob Hornby T:Jim & Suzi Best	122	—	/4/9/3	66	89	-	—	—	—	+3	8.4	25 4%
Good effort on rare Flat run in March; this is tougher; made a noise over hurdles latest
10 (3)	Smith Chestnut J:William Carson T:Lydia Richards	J:William Carson T:Lydia Richards	125	v	61-315	69	90	25	22d	—	—	+3	5.5	33 3%
