Did not get run of the race last time; new trip makes some appeal and he's not discounted
9	Jackpot Des Bordes Bay J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	156	tp	12-612	118	122	111	82d	—	—	+8	20.6	11/2 15%
Needs extra for this handicap debut but early days and he has first-time cheekpieces
5	Old Cowboy Bay J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	159	—	2-3341	121	127	114	12d	—	—	+13	24.6	7/1 13%

3-5 over hurdles; all his success on soft or heavy ground but he's a very useful prospect
4	Oh My Johnny Bay J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	159	—	F4F171	121	127	120	38d	—	—	+24	35.4	17/2 11%
Rallied powerfully to lead on the post in handicap at Hereford (2m4f, good to soft) latest
2	Alexei Bay J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	168	t	114	130	123	103	41d	—	—	+25	34.9	8/1 11%
Two easy wins at Taunton (2m3f/2m) before put in his place in 2m Listed contest at Exeter
6	Kalium Bay J:Alan Johns T:Tim Vaughan	J:Alan Johns T:Tim Vaughan	158	—	12115	120	130	113	47d	—	—	+27	35.4	10/1 9%
Two wins before a disappointing handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) on latest outing
8	Beau Quali Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	156	—	-242F2	118	129	92	33d	—	—	+19	26.4	14/1 7%
Fell on penultimate start and finished 2nd in four of the other five; new trip worth a go
11	Six And Out Chestnut J:James Davies T:David Weston	J:James Davies T:David Weston	145	—	5-1U16	107	130	109	212d	—	—	+12	15	50/1 2%
Both wins were over the extended 2m2f on good at Stratford last summer; off since August
NR	Serious Challenge Chestnut J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	166	—	511	128	123	109	26d	—	—	—	36.5	—
Very useful on Flat; won the last two of his three hurdle races and has clear potential
NR	Calimystic Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	156	—	221	118	125	101	31d	—	—	—	33	—
2m3f winner on good last time; should still be capable of better moving into handicaps
