Progressive in France (won last three races); very interesting on debut for Willie Mullins
22	East India Express Bay J:Freddie Gordon T:Nicky Henderson	J:Freddie Gordon T:Nicky Henderson	150	—	42-U11	129	147	122	78d	—	—	+8	24.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
2-2 since switched to handicap level, both wins in December; open to further improvement

Scored over C&D in sole start this season and that form is very strong; 6-6 over hurdles
9	Taponthego Bay J:Mike O'Connor T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Mike O'Connor T:Henry De Bromhead	156	—	-21233	135	146	121	22d	—	—	+27	35.2	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Should relish this step back up in trip; solid form in two attempts over 2m4f; respected
3	No Ordinary Joe Bay J:Freddie Gingell T:Nicky Henderson	J:Freddie Gingell T:Nicky Henderson	159	t	37-574	138	151	115	34d	—	—	+17	23.9	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Second off 1lb higher in this race in 2023 and had an excuse last year; not ruled out
13	Nurse Susan Chestnut J:Tristan Durrell T:Dan Skelton	J:Tristan Durrell T:Dan Skelton	154	—	4/711-	133	150	106	418d	—	—	+17	22.4	4.00/1	16/1 6%

5	Minella Sixo Bay J:Jake Coen T:Gordon Elliott	J:Jake Coen T:Gordon Elliott	158	—	12123F	137	144	126	27d	—	—	+26	29.9	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Faller last time; consistent otherwise; solid second in sole Cheltenham attempt; player
10	Karafon Bay J:Tiernan Power Roche T:W P Mullins	J:Tiernan Power Roche T:W P Mullins	156	—	35-147	135	140	111	40d	—	—	+19	22.1	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Back down in class after two Grade 1 defeats; may show progress on handicap debut
16	Park Of Kings Bay J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Paul Nolan	J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Paul Nolan	153	t	061022	132	136	119	75d	—	—	+30	32.9	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Good second in Listed handicaps the last twice, finishing strongly at Leopardstown latest
4	No Questions Asked Chestnut J:Callum Pritchard T:Ben Pauling	J:Callum Pritchard T:Ben Pauling	159	—	-13121	138	146	131	23d	—	—	+41	44.3	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Seems harshly treated, having been put up 14lb for his Listed effort two starts ago
6	The Enabler Bay J:James Smith T:Gordon Elliott	J:James Smith T:Gordon Elliott	157	—	-2P210	136	139	123	40d	—	—	+29	32.3	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Scored over 2m4f on penultimate outing but was all out and only just held on
15	Electric Mason Bay J:Caoilin Quinn T:Chris Gordon	J:Caoilin Quinn T:Chris Gordon	153	—	-21351	132	149	138	47d	—	—	+34	36.8	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Raised a total of 15lb for two Newbury efforts that may not be entirely solid
17	Raglan Road Bay J:Gavin Brouder T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Gavin Brouder T:Henry De Bromhead	152	—	451P-5	131	142	120	55d	—	—	+18	21	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Encouraging form in two handicaps at this sort of distance; still unexposed
12	Act Of Authority Bay J:Lewis Saunders T:Olly Murphy	J:Lewis Saunders T:Olly Murphy	155	—	-91143	134	145	119	34d	—	—	+30	32.7	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Has a solid record under Lewis Saunders but faces a tougher task in this field
14	Doyen Quest Chestnut J:Harry Atkins T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Atkins T:Dan Skelton	154	p	-21467	133	149	134	20d	—	—	+23	25.3	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Disappointing last time; headgear now applied; difficult task off current mark
1	Tounsivator Chestnut J:Kieran Callaghan T:W P Mullins	J:Kieran Callaghan T:W P Mullins	166	—	215197	145	142	125	40d	—	—	+29	31.3	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Interesting on his 2m Grade 2 win but failed to convince with stamina in sole 2m4f run
7	Uncle Bert Bay J:James Turner T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:James Turner T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	157	—	3P2315	136	143	134	27d	—	—	+30	31.8	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Record of 3-7 under James Turner but has to overcome a career-high mark
19	Punctuation Bay J:Freddie Mitchell T:Nicky Henderson	J:Freddie Mitchell T:Nicky Henderson	152	t	855-43	131	148	122	20d	—	—	+19	20.8	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Encouraging effort last time; won a race of this nature at Aintree two years ago
11	Push The Button Grey J:Finn Lambert T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:Finn Lambert T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	156	p	1-5P20	135	146	128	33d	—	—	+27	28.6	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Inconsistent this term but it's worth nothing that he's 2-2 under Finn Lambert
21	Mordor Bay J:Tom Harney T:Gordon Elliott	J:Tom Harney T:Gordon Elliott	151	—	212120	130	145	135	41d	—	—	+31	32.4	16.50/1	66/1 1%
The form of his summer wins is a world away from Cheltenham Festival standard
20	Stormbreaker Bay J:Sean Cleary-Farrell T:W P Mullins	J:Sean Cleary-Farrell T:W P Mullins	151	ht	21620	130	143	99	40d	—	—	+27	27.8	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Lacked fluency and ran poorly in Dublin Racing Festival handicap (2m) last time
23	Harsh Grey J:Finn Brickley T:Gordon Elliott	J:Finn Brickley T:Gordon Elliott	149	p	094600	128	143	112	19d	—	—	+18	19.9	31.25/1	125/1 1%
Fourth in the 4yo handicap here last year; inconsistent since joining current yard
24	Wilde About Oscar Bay J:Dylan Johnston T:Sophie Leech	J:Dylan Johnston T:Sophie Leech	147	tp	P60/6-	126	-	-	633d	—	—	+18	19.2	37.50/1	150/1 1%
Absent since June 2023; makes debut for new stable; best watched
18	Flash Collonges Bay J:Jack Hogan T:Sophie Leech	J:Jack Hogan T:Sophie Leech	152	tp	F/0PP-	131	-	-	321d	—	—	+20	20.4	37.50/1	150/1 1%
