Hit hard by the handicapper for recent wins but this 7yo looks firmly on the upgrade
3	Duke Of Deception Bay J:Henry Brooke T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	J:Henry Brooke T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	167	p	2-5P33	119	129	117	43d	—	—	+12	24.1	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Appears to have little margin for error off this mark but has each-way claims
2	Rockinastorm Bay J:David Bass T:Henry Daly	J:David Bass T:Henry Daly	167	—	2-3112	119	126	114	20d	—	—	+12	24.4	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Front-runner with good strike-rate over fences and ran well in his hat-trick bid at Ascot
5	Well Dick Bay J:Adam Wedge T:Emma Lavelle	J:Adam Wedge T:Emma Lavelle	166	—	P1P-P1	118	127	63	25d	—	—	+11	19.5	2.00/1	8/1 11%
His profile is all or nothing but a relentless galloper and this is his sort of race
6	Rouge de L'Quest Bay J:Callum Pritchard(5) T:Rebecca Curtis	J:Callum Pritchard(5) T:Rebecca Curtis	163	tv	122-23	115	128	109	63d	—	—	+10	18.8	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Consistent at up to 3m1f but stamina appeared stretched by 3m6f at Exeter; new headgear
14	Schalke Bay J:Toby Wynne(3) T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	J:Toby Wynne(3) T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	155	—	8P-323	107	-	-	39d	—	—	+10	16	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Running well over hurdles for new yard but this a belated return to fences
10	Haute Estime Bay J:Patrick Wadge T:Lucinda Russell	J:Patrick Wadge T:Lucinda Russell	160	tp	3P-662	112	130	79	40d	—	—	+9	17.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Third 12 months ago off 5lb higher; signs of a return to form last time at Kelso
9	Fern Hill Bay J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	160	p	67-552	112	128	90	47d	—	—	+11	17.4	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Got himself well handicapped and returned to form with a near miss at Fakenham (3m5f)
13	Laskalin Bay J:Miss Lucy Turner(5) T:Venetia Williams	J:Miss Lucy Turner(5) T:Venetia Williams	156	b	2P-735	108	129	102	36d	—	—	+10	16.2	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Has lost his way but now tries new headgear off a much reduced mark
7	Animal Bay J:Sean Bowen T:Suzy Smith	J:Sean Bowen T:Suzy Smith	161	—	3257-P	113	125	102	19d	—	—	+11	17.5	3.50/1	14/1 7%
He never got involved before pulling up on his Windsor reappearance (3m4f)
12	Betterforeveryone Bay J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	158	b	219-47	110	129	84	57d	—	—	+11	16.6	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Hasn't progressed since sole chase win and trainer rolls the dice with new headgear
4	Poppa Poutine Bay J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	166	t	76/614	118	126	79	41d	—	—	+14	18.2	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Below par latest but getting back on soft ground should help and he'll stay okay
11	Bushypark Bay J:Joe Williamson(3) T:Philip Kirby	J:Joe Williamson(3) T:Philip Kirby	160	p	62-PF6	112	-	-	20d	—	—	+13	16.4	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Front-runner who loves the mud but an 11yo who struggles with his consistency these days
1	The Big Breakaway Chestnut J:Miss Anna Johnston(7) T:Anthony Charlton	J:Miss Anna Johnston(7) T:Anthony Charlton	168	tv	6-P2PP	120	121	87	22d	—	—	+15	18.3	8.25/1	33/1 3%
New headgear provides some cause for optimism but far too risky to trust
NR	Valleres Bay J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	160	b	0/PP-P	112	-	-	39d	—	—	—	15.5	—	—
Well handicapped but much depends on what effect the new blinkers might have
NR	Stellar Stream Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:Kayley Woollacott	J:NON-RUNNER T:Kayley Woollacott	153	b	UP-9P2	105	125	-	33d	—	—	—	13.8	—	—
Won this last year off the same mark and latest effort was more encouraging; new blinkers
