Made quite encouraging handicap debut over 2m1f; effectively 10lb higher today, though
4	Rae Des Champs ch J:Conor O'Farrell T:Rose Dobbin	J:Conor O'Farrell T:Rose Dobbin	165	—	2/452-	107	111	106	29d	—	—	+7	22.2	4 25%
Good second over 2m2f last month; still quite lightly raced; tries a new trip here
10	Lastofthecosmics b J:Dylan Johnston(7) T:Iain Jardine	J:Dylan Johnston(7) T:Iain Jardine	148	tp	32145-	90	111	103	20d	—	—	+6	21.5	9/2 18%
Slightly disappointing last time but was in good form beforehand; one to consider
2	Deluxe Range b J:Ryan Mania T:Sandy Thomson	J:Ryan Mania T:Sandy Thomson	167	p	PF533-	109	112	91	29d	—	—	+9	23.1	9/2 18%
Ended last season with two fairly good efforts but is seemingly on the downgrade now
5	You Some Boy b J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Rebecca Menzies	J:Aaron Anderson(5) T:Rebecca Menzies	162	—	25P10-	104	112	82	53d	—	—	+13	23.6	15/2 12%
Well beaten in series final last time but has claims if judged on earlier win at Ayr
3	Thatbeatsbanagher b J:Richie McLernon T:Ben Haslam	J:Richie McLernon T:Ben Haslam	167	p	94212-	109	107	99	32d	—	—	+22	31.9	17/2 11%
In good form over 3m3f at Sedgefield at end of last season; may not be as effective here
1	Court Dreaming b J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	170	p	/3314-	112	113	75	38d	—	—	+19	27	11/1 8%
Returned from break with decent effort last month but may find others better handicapped
7	Nikgarde b J:Brian Hughes T:James Ewart	J:Brian Hughes T:James Ewart	157	—	/8PU0-	99	113	78	29d	—	—	+8	14	12 8%
Has a bit to prove but ran well here two starts ago and Brian Hughes is a good booking
6	Balkotic b J:Joshua Thompson(10) T:Micky Hammond	J:Joshua Thompson(10) T:Micky Hammond	157	tp	43411-	99	111	76	179d	—	—	+26	31.9	14 7%
Won his last two, but today's hat-trick attempt comes after a six-month absence
11	Tomorrows Angel ch J:Harry Reed T:Tristan Davidson	J:Harry Reed T:Tristan Davidson	147	tv	68705-	89	111	102	—	—	—	+6	11.4	14 7%
Badly out of form over hurdles during winter and also struggled in a recent Flat marathon
12	Bushmill Boy b J:Thomas Dowson T:David Thompson	J:Thomas Dowson T:David Thompson	142	p	54F47-	84	110	76	18d	—	—	+5	9.9	16/1 6%
Disappointing favourite when dropped back to 2m last month; new trip and cheekpieces here

Not seen under rules since summer 2021 but went close in open point last month
