1 (1)	Neapolitan Bay J:Ross Coakley T:Simon & Ed Crisford	J:Ross Coakley T:Simon & Ed Crisford	137	t	61	-	86	58	29d	—	—	-22	26.4	0.20/1	4/5 56%
Found a bright spurt to win going away over 6f at Kempton; bred to stay 7f
4 (3)	Louis Quatorze Chestnut J:Kevin Stott T:David Menuisier	J:Kevin Stott T:David Menuisier	130	h	530	-	90	-	33d	—	—	-17	10.5	0.63/1	5/2 29%
Has shown promise at 7f and 1m; return to 7f with hood added could help; can play big part
7 (6)	Wonder Smile Bay J:Harry Davies T:Hugo Palmer	J:Harry Davies T:Hugo Palmer	130	t	72	-	80	64	14d	—	—	-6	9.4	1.00/1	5 20%
Looked promising when runner-up over C&D on second start; ripe for further improvement
5 (4)	Show Me A Hero Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Michael Bell	J:Rob Hornby T:Michael Bell	130	—	—	-	61	-	17d	—	—	-4	1.6	3.75/1	16 6%
50-1 for 7f debut at Yarmouth recently when slowly away and never involved; one to watch
6 (2)	Wide Margin Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	130	—	5	-	64	45	14d	—	—	-5	1.7	4.75/1	20 5%
15-2 for C&D debut but found little in the straight; others much more likely
8 (5)	Rose Branch Bay J:Hayley Turner T:George Boughey	J:Hayley Turner T:George Boughey	125	—	35	-	76	-	61d	—	—	0	2.8	9.75/1	40 3%
Signs of some ability at 6f and about 7f but looks to be making her way towards handicaps
3 (7)	Honrado Bay J:Callum Shepherd T:Michael Bell	J:Callum Shepherd T:Michael Bell	130	—	40	-	70	-	17d	—	—	-1	0.5	16.25/1	66 2%
Minor promise on 7f debut; soft ground perhaps unsuitable since; handicaps next
2 (8)	Away Day Bay J:Darragh Keenan T:Sir Mark Prescott Bt	J:Darragh Keenan T:Sir Mark Prescott Bt	130	—	7	-	48	-	38d	—	—	-1	0.3	37.25/1	150 1%
50-1, soundly beaten over 7f on debut; should come into his own in handicaps over further
