Initial mark looks workable; no surprise to see him improve now entering handicaps.
7	Copper Fox Chestnut J:Theo Gillard T:Donald McCain	J:Theo Gillard T:Donald McCain	154	t	426444	86	100	84	67d	—	—	+4	12.4	2.50/1	10/1 9%

Not at his best at Market Rasen latest but not written off in first-time tongue-tie.
1	Quian Grey J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Thomas Gallagher	J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Thomas Gallagher	168	—	851554	100	101	83	15d	—	—	+11	17.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
2m hurdle winner; below par last two starts; bit to prove.

On long losing run and not easy to make a case for him based on his last three starts.
10	Sir Cilia Bay J:Conor O'Farrell T:Matt Crawley	J:Conor O'Farrell T:Matt Crawley	145	—	556	87	107	84	24d	—	—	+6	10.6	5.50/1	22/1 4%
