5	Issar d'Airy Bay J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	158	—	1155-2	130	146	128	28d	—	—	+6	33.4	0.56/1	9/4 31%
Second-season chaser who posted a solid effort on reappearance; 2-2 over C&D; interesting
2	Imperial Saint Bay J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Micheal Nolan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	166	—	331-11	138	143	128	21d	—	—	+5	29.3	0.75/1	3/1 25%
4-7 under rules; 2-2 since switched to chasing; open to further progress; respected
9	Petit Tonnerre Bay J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	155	—	7-7926	127	150	120	14d	—	—	+10	22.9	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Close second to Imperial Saint at Aintree in most recent handicap attempt; in the mix
1	Etalon Brown J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	168	t	1117-5	140	146	131	22d	—	—	+13	26.1	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Well held in Graded races the last twice; progressive otherwise over fences
4	General Medrano Bay J:Ben Jones T:Emma Lavelle	J:Ben Jones T:Emma Lavelle	159	—	5437-2	131	147	135	7d	—	—	+18	27.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Second-season chaser; ran well at Haydock last Saturday on reappearance; one to consider
6	Beau Balko Bay J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	157	—	133-31	129	147	122	21d	—	—	+14	21.9	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Suited by the switch to 2m4f last time; perhaps not crying out for return to 2m
8	Prince Quali Bay J:Harry Kimber T:Robert Walford	J:Harry Kimber T:Robert Walford	156	—	52211-	128	138	126	243d	—	—	+36	42.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Progressive last term for new yard; Chepstow double represents solid form
3	I'd Like To Know Bay J:Rex Dingle T:Chris Gordon	J:Rex Dingle T:Chris Gordon	165	—	214-15	137	145	123	23d	—	—	+19	23	6.25/1	25/1 4%
