1 (6)	Hitched Bay J:Luke Morris T:David Simcock	J:Luke Morris T:David Simcock	140	h	1132-1	78	84	64	9d	—	—	0	24.3	0.69/1	11/4 27%
In fine form on the AW since November (form 111321); C&D winner and respected
8 (3)	Partisan Hero Bay J:Connor Planas(3) T:David Loughnane	J:Connor Planas(3) T:David Loughnane	132	p	00/22-	70	84	77	30d	—	—	-12	12.3	0.75/1	3/1 25%
A repeat of last month's narrow Southwell defeat would make him a strong contender
2 (10)	Radiant Beauty Bay J:Hector Crouch T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	J:Hector Crouch T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	138	ht	8552-1	77	86	68	12d	—	—	+5	21.5	1.13/1	9/2 18%
C&D winner last time; up 4lb but still high on the list, especially if allowed to dominate
9 (7)	Spectacular Style Chestnut J:Aidan Keeley T:Roger Varian	J:Aidan Keeley T:Roger Varian	131	h	9470-3	69	88	72	15d	—	—	0	10.8	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Fair third last time, but 0-6 in handicaps and has become disappointing
6 (5)	Imperial Fighter Bay J:William Carver T:Jamie Osborne	J:William Carver T:Jamie Osborne	133	ht	996-71	71	84	75	7d	—	—	-2	7.9	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Ended a 21-race losing run over C&D a week ago; just 2lb higher and hard to ignore
7 (9)	Charencey Chestnut J:Joe Leavy(3) T:Ian Williams	J:Joe Leavy(3) T:Ian Williams	133	—	36309-	71	85	74	30d	—	—	+2	9.5	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Has to bounce back from a modest effort last time; this the longest trip he has attempted
5 (2)	Commander Of Life Bay J:Lewis Edmunds T:Jessica Macey	J:Lewis Edmunds T:Jessica Macey	134	p	2453-9	73	86	77	10d	—	—	+1	7.5	3.00/1	12/1 8%
1-17 and 0-13 in handicaps; needs the cheekpieces to have a positive effect
3 (4)	Cosmos Raj Bay J:Cian Horgan(5) T:David O'Meara	J:Cian Horgan(5) T:David O'Meara	137	p	51160-	75	82	-	20d	—	—	+13	14.8	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Record over C&D reads 43411; can't be written off if recent return has brought him on
11 (11)	Eden Storm Bay J:David Nolan T:Patrick Morris	J:David Nolan T:Patrick Morris	130	—	8798-5	68	81	68	12d	—	—	+3	4.9	16.50/1	66/1 1%

Back off last winning mark, but moderate the last twice and stamina remains a query
4 (8)	See Paris Bay J:Joey Haynes T:Ivan Furtado	J:Joey Haynes T:Ivan Furtado	135	—	15509-	73	81	37	46d	—	—	+6	8.2	16.50/1	66/1 1%
