Fair opening mark; up in trip, but question of whether even further would suit better
2	Shuil Donn Bay J:Brian Hughes T:Paul Collins	J:Brian Hughes T:Paul Collins	165	h	/548-1	101	103	83	23d	—	—	+9	28.5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Easy Southwell scorer on seasonal/handicap/stable debut (2m, good); Brian Hughes up again
3	Man Of The Sea Chestnut J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Neil Mulholland	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Neil Mulholland	164	tp	215-92	100	105	98	—	—	—	+2	16.9	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Only just above his last winning mark; chance unless conditions turn slower than good
NR	Balranald Grey J:Jamie Hamilton T:Alison Hamilton	J:Jamie Hamilton T:Alison Hamilton	149	—	6137P2	85	105	98	10d	—	—	+3	21	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Almost held on dropped back to 2m2f latest (good); 4lb above his winning hurdles mark

C&D second here last month; respected if losing action on chase debut since is forgiven
1	Eagles Realm Bay J:Max Kendrick T:David Killahena & Graeme Mcpherson	J:Max Kendrick T:David Killahena & Graeme Mcpherson	168	t	16-424	104	107	101	40d	—	—	+7	15.9	2.25/1	10 10%
In good heart for new trainer, but looks a place rather than win proposition at present.
5	Captain Jack Bay J:Ned Fox(5) T:Samuel Drinkwater	J:Ned Fox(5) T:Samuel Drinkwater	154	tp	27326-	90	106	86	172d	—	—	+10	18.2	2.75/1	11/1 8%
0-22, though went close in a Stratford seller in April; doubt ground will be soft enough
7	Green Planet Bay J:Craig Nichol T:Jedd Okeeffe	J:Craig Nichol T:Jedd Okeeffe	151	—	F/P09-	87	98	65	196d	—	—	+3	11.8	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Nearly two years since his peak hurdling efforts; wind surgery since poor start to 2023
10	Horizon Dove Bay J:Adam Wedge T:L J Morgan	J:Adam Wedge T:L J Morgan	142	tp	-P5484	78	103	83	23d	—	—	+2	8.7	3.75/1	16 6%
Present trip requirements over hurdles not entirely clear; 3lb out of the weights here
4	Wicklow Flyer Bay J:Emma Smith-Chaston(3) T:John Wainwright	J:Emma Smith-Chaston(3) T:John Wainwright	158	p	P-P89P	94	99	77	35d	—	—	+9	11.6	9.75/1	40 3%
No form since her Irish claiming hurdle win (2m4f, good) not much more than a year ago
