Back up 5lb for Wincanton win and he's still not the best of jumpers; one to take on
9	Night Jet Bay J:Ben Poste T:Tom Symonds	J:Ben Poste T:Tom Symonds	144	—	55-F32	76	-	-	17d	—	—	-6	11.5	1.13/1	9/2 18%
In-form maiden hurdler; place possibilities, provided he's as effective over fences
7	My Mate Polly Bay J:Harry Kimber T:Bill Turner	J:Harry Kimber T:Bill Turner	148	p	P63O12	86	106	97	25d	—	—	+10	26.9	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Form of Wincanton win has substance; creditable effort at Taunton since; respected
2	Iron d'Ex Grey J:Sean Houlihan T:Sheila Lewis	J:Sean Houlihan T:Sheila Lewis	164	p	P-1744	96	106	91	26d	—	—	+2	15.5	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Successful off just 1lb lower over C&D on sole Ludlow start; interesting back here

Chance partly depends on how well he responds to first-time tongue-tie; new stable
6	Yes And Yes Grey J:Lee Edwards T:Belinda Clarke	J:Lee Edwards T:Belinda Clarke	149	—	84894-	81	98	74	312d	—	—	+2	10.1	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Absent since his modest fourth in similar event over 3m here last February
5	Aldsworth Bay J:Liam Harrison T:Robbie Llewellyn	J:Liam Harrison T:Robbie Llewellyn	160	b	/F2P-0	92	-	-	64d	—	—	+4	13.2	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Chase debutant who has a doubt over current form; place claims on best efforts
8	Rock On Rita Bay J:Richie McLernon T:Neil Mulholland	J:Richie McLernon T:Neil Mulholland	146	tp	6685/P	78	101	-	47d	—	—	+2	8.7	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Perhaps needed latest run; remains well handicapped on best hurdles form
