11	Goshhowposh Bay J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	144	—	43-1U1	127	154	89	47d	—	—	-2	28.6	0.50/1	2/1 33%
2-3 in handicaps; has plenty of potential and shapes as if he has major stamina reserves
6	Hititi Bay J:Bryan Carver T:Robert Walford	J:Bryan Carver T:Robert Walford	154	t	11-422	137	150	135	35d	—	—	+10	26.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Best efforts when 2nd on last two outings; up another 3lb but a leading player
2	Gowel Road b/br J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	160	t	21-473	143	151	145	21d	—	—	+15	26.6	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Running creditably, without being quite in top form; tongue tied for the first time
4	Mill Green Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	157	—	33-023	140	148	121	29d	—	—	+16	24.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
At least as good as ever; exposed 12yo but he should be seriously involved
12	Shallow River b/br J:Bradley Harris(3) T:Anthony Charlton	J:Bradley Harris(3) T:Anthony Charlton	142	p	222423	125	145	128	29d	—	—	+22	29.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Very solid sequence but Goshhowposh has the edge judged on their Wincanton clash
1	My Drogo Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	168	—	1/F1/9	151	-	-	105d	—	—	+25	32.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Looked a top prospect in 2021; always towards rear in Aintree chase (October) after layoff
5	Angels Breath Grey J:Charlie Deutsch T:Sam Thomas	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Sam Thomas	155	—	2-2744	138	151	104	21d	—	—	+21	27.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
2nd of 16 in a 2m4f handicap at Cheltenham in October; has not quite matched that since
3	Third Wind b/br J:Jonathan Burke T:Hughie Morrison	J:Jonathan Burke T:Hughie Morrison	158	—	7331/P	141	-	-	29d	—	—	+19	24.1	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Won the Pertemps Final (3m, soft) in 2022; absent since until pulled up four weeks ago
8	The Big Breakaway Chestnut J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	152	—	F-5PP6	135	148	119	29d	—	—	+18	22.6	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Has not clicked in his last six starts, returned to hurdling for latest
9	Carbon King Black J:Harry Cobden T:Evan Williams	J:Harry Cobden T:Evan Williams	146	—	6-8P1P	129	148	112	29d	—	—	+16	21.4	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Back from chasing; not proven over this sort of trip and needs a career best
7	Captain Morgs Bay J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	153	p	0P-42P	136	149	-	58d	—	—	+19	22.4	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Has something to prove on soft and heavy ground, as shown when pulled up on latest outing
