Back on track with close second at Leicester latest (2m4f, heavy); needs to back that up.
2	Fairlawn Flyer Bay J:Shane Fenelon(5) T:Peter & Michael Bowen	J:Shane Fenelon(5) T:Peter & Michael Bowen	168	p	-47471	98	114	81	8d	—	—	+10	27	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Mark and form both obvious plus points, less so this sharp 3m and the likely good ground.
6	Kapamazov Bay J:Ben Poste T:James Evans	J:Ben Poste T:James Evans	156	p	576634	86	105	102	23d	—	—	+1	15.1	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Eased another 1lb despite outrunning mark latest; chance if getting all the basics right.
1	Kit's Coty Bay J:Tom Bellamy T:Emma Lavelle	J:Tom Bellamy T:Emma Lavelle	168	t	-33658	98	106	92	47d	—	—	+5	16.8	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Plausible excuses since October's fine chase debut third (3m, good); tongue-tie goes on.
8	Supasunrise Bay J:Finn Lambert(3) T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:Finn Lambert(3) T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	153	tp	253065	83	108	85	34d	—	—	+3	11.4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Fourth in this last year (soft); back on his previous winning mark at last; interesting.
9	Boys Of Wexford Bay J:James Davies T:Henry Oliver	J:James Davies T:Henry Oliver	152	p	2-P136	82	104	94	28d	—	—	+6	13.7	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Dual winner off high-70s marks, but well held off similar when second in this last year.
4	Brother Boris Chestnut J:Tom Cannon T:Lucy Wadham	J:Tom Cannon T:Lucy Wadham	165	p	-6752P	95	99	68	48d	—	—	+8	15.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Wind surgery since a fading C&D effort; missed last previous intended run on good ground.
11	School For Scandal Grey J:Taylor Fisher T:Joe Tickle	J:Taylor Fisher T:Joe Tickle	150	—	211362	80	101	94	53d	—	—	+15	20.4	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Trip and ground are both fine, but back up 2lb and competition for the lead less so.
5	Aldsworth Bay J:Liam Harrison T:Robbie Llewellyn	J:Liam Harrison T:Robbie Llewellyn	162	tb	/F2P-0	92	-	-	129d	—	—	+7	11.9	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Led until weakening quickly on November's seasonal return here; may yet make a chaser.
7	Mystic Man Bay J:Conor Ring T:Ryan Potter	J:Conor Ring T:Ryan Potter	153	tp	47P575	83	107	93	12d	—	—	+3	10.2	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Mark and ground are both in his favour; yet to show much when a tongue-tie is fitted.
10	Bring The Action Bay J:Lorcan Murtagh T:Nigel Hawke	J:Lorcan Murtagh T:Nigel Hawke	152	tv	1-P75P	82	106	72	34d	—	—	+13	15.8	8.25/1	33/1 3%
1lb below last April's winning mark (2m5f, good to soft), having underperformed since.
12	Raindance Queen Bay J:Tabitha Worsley(3) T:William de Best-Turner	J:Tabitha Worsley(3) T:William de Best-Turner	142	—	-P007P	72	101	81	109d	—	—	+5	5.8	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Swimming in calmer waters than over C&D last time, but still couldn't be wildly hopeful.
