3	Wise Guy b J:Charlie Hammond T:Stuart Edmunds	J:Charlie Hammond T:Stuart Edmunds	166	—	1213-8	108	112	106	25d	—	—	0	20.7	10/3 23%
Ran encouragingly on last month's return and worth considering with that run behind him.
5	Rumoursareflying b J:Paul O'Brien T:Pam Sly	J:Paul O'Brien T:Pam Sly	166	—	4224-2	108	115	102	34d	—	—	+7	24.7	4/1 20%
Chased home a subsequent winner on reappearance and that form makes him of interest here.
7	Don Virginia b J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	165	—	2-324	107	106	85	25d	—	—	+7	22.2	9/2 18%
Going the right way and one to consider; appears versatile ground-wise.
11	King Ottokar b J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	158	—	8/43/	100	110	-	755d	—	—	+3	16.1	13/2 13%
Useful on Flat; below that level in this sphere but respected on handicap hurdle debut.
6	Bobby Socks b J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Olly Murphy	J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Olly Murphy	165	—	6/411-	107	113	-	501d	—	—	+4	18.3	11/2 15%
Has an absence to overcome and a 6lb rise but the stable can ready one; player.
8	Activist b J:Jack Tudor T:David Pipe	J:Jack Tudor T:David Pipe	160	p	211P-P	102	109	92	187d	—	—	+8	14.7	14/1 7%
Dual hurdle winner but pulled up the last twice and needs to turn things around.
10	Moonlight Glory b J:Tom Midgley(3) T:Mark Walford	J:Tom Midgley(3) T:Mark Walford	160	—	0-0559	102	111	103	23d	—	—	+8	14.7	16/1 6%
Six-time winner over hurdles but out of form recently and needs to stage a revival.
4	Ballybreeze b J:Robert Dunne T:Samuel Drinkwater	J:Robert Dunne T:Samuel Drinkwater	166	—	17F/U-	108	112	-	367d	—	—	+11	15.9	18/1 5%
Capable of getting involved off his lower hurdles mark if ready to go after a break.
2	Salley Gardens b J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Olly Murphy	J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Olly Murphy	166	t	P/335-	108	114	-	515d	—	—	+12	15.4	28/1 3%
Has gone well off the back of a break before but might find this trip on the sharp side.
9	Roccos Inspiration b J:Joshua Bryan T:Olly Murphy	J:Joshua Bryan T:Olly Murphy	160	t	1236-5	102	112	111	14d	—	—	+11	13.6	50/1 2%
Recent return after wind surgery was underwhelming and has enough to prove at present.
12	Ghasham b J:Charlie Todd T:Ian Williams	J:Charlie Todd T:Ian Williams	156	—	67410/	98	103	-	—	—	—	+18	19.2	80/1 1%
Poor on the Flat since returning from an absence and a bit to prove now back over hurdles.
NR	Dominic's Fault b J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	169	—	F/13-2	111	113	85	25d	—	—	—	19.5	—
Narrow defeat on handicap debut off 4lb lower; strong claims back down in trip.
