#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
5 (7)	Streak Lightning Chestnut J:Joanna Mason T:Ruth Carr	J:Joanna Mason T:Ruth Carr	131	—	54845-	71	90	66	133d	—	—	-14	13.7	0.50/1	2/1 33%
Last two wins have come here in March, once back from an absence; has plenty in his favour
12 (8)	Lope De Rueda Bay J:Ben Robinson T:Rebecca Menzies	J:Ben Robinson T:Rebecca Menzies	124	h	65085-	64	89	34	136d	—	—	-9	8.5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
New yard has been among the winners under both codes and he's well worth a market check
1 (11)	Gobi Sunset Bay J:Andrew Mullen T:Iain Jardine	J:Andrew Mullen T:Iain Jardine	135	p	86-260	75	88	66	26d	—	—	-3	9.9	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Inconsistent; a lot hinges on the first-time cheekpieces (tried in blinkers once before)
4 (1)	Sir Maxi Bay J:Oisin Orr T:Richard Fahey	J:Oisin Orr T:Richard Fahey	131	—	83-956	71	89	66	17d	—	—	-1	7.6	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Has always had two ways of running but there are reasons for optimism
11 (2)	Admiral Nelson Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Peter Niven	J:Cam Hardie T:Peter Niven	124	t	18-545	64	88	78	26d	—	—	-2	5.7	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Excuses with one thing and another since C&D win off 2lb lower on his stable debut; player
2 (5)	Abruzzo Mia Bay J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	132	—	175-59	72	89	64	28d	—	—	+1	7.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Patchy at best since his win and needs to improve a deal on last month's effort here
8 (6)	Bobby Joe Leg Chestnut J:James Sullivan T:Ruth Carr	J:James Sullivan T:Ruth Carr	129	b	-11116	69	87	63	13d	—	—	+16	23.9	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Said to have run flat into better company off this mark latest and now has to bounce back
6 (12)	Sidney's Son Bay J:Faye McManoman T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Faye McManoman T:Nigel Tinkler	130	—	26217-	70	85	54	175d	—	—	+12	16.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Low mileage and interesting to see how he goes in the market after six months off
10 (9)	Global Spirit Bay J:Jason Hart T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	J:Jason Hart T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	127	—	426-48	67	88	45	17d	—	—	0	5.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Has resumed in fair nick and holds each-way claims in an open handicap down 2lb
3 (10)	Biplane Bay J:Paul Mulrennan T:John Wainwright	J:Paul Mulrennan T:John Wainwright	131	p	07283-	71	84	-	137d	—	—	+8	11.8	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Returns from a break on a career-high mark and will need to be spot on
7 (3)	Cold Stare Bay J:David Nolan T:David O'Meara	J:David Nolan T:David O'Meara	130	t	040-77	70	88	65	28d	—	—	+3	5.6	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Finished behind a few of these over C&D four weeks ago; isn't obviously fancied
9 (4)	Arranmore Bay J:Aiden Brookes(5) T:Micky Hammond	J:Aiden Brookes(5) T:Micky Hammond	128	—	85-280	68	88	65	17d	—	—	+3	4.9	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Needs to improve a deal on his last two efforts over C&D if he's to break the losing run
