4	Celtic Dino Chestnut J:Dylan Johnston(3) T:Sam Thomas	J:Dylan Johnston(3) T:Sam Thomas	153	—	1-1143	132	150	129	41d	—	—	+11	34.8	0.69/1	11/4 27%
He's a good jumper who could have a big role to play off this mark in his first handicap
12	Afadil Bay J:Freddie Gingell T:Paul Nicholls	J:Freddie Gingell T:Paul Nicholls	145	tp	845623	124	149	145	27d	—	—	+14	29.4	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Third in this last year when 6lb higher; very nearly won the Imperial Cup last time
18	Hamsiyann Chestnut J:Miss M O'Sullivan(3) T:A J Martin	J:Miss M O'Sullivan(3) T:A J Martin	142	t	023-19	121	147	116	61d	—	—	+10	20.6	2.13/1	17/2 11%
May yet have more to offer as a hurdler but this drop back to a sharp 2m is worrying
3	Alnilam b/br J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Olly Murphy	J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Olly Murphy	157	h	-92212	136	152	137	34d	—	—	+31	39.9	2.25/1	9/1 10%
2nd in the Morebattle and 2lb lower here if taking into account Beau Morgan's allowance
16	Jack Hyde Bay J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Fergal O'Brien	J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Fergal O'Brien	143	—	1/4311	122	151	120	18d	—	—	+19	27.4	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Another improving novice, who hasn't been overly stretched to win minor races at Southwell
9	Moon Chime Bay J:Mr Tommie M O'Brien(3) T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson	J:Mr Tommie M O'Brien(3) T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson	148	—	11-431	127	148	109	25d	—	—	+13	21.6	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Up 11lb for his Stratford win but that was only his second run back from wind surgery
7	Grimaud Bay J:Danny Gilligan T:Gordon Elliott	J:Danny Gilligan T:Gordon Elliott	151	—	3321	130	148	112	27d	—	—	+32	37.3	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Recent maiden winner and he's an unexposed handicap debutant for a top yard
8	Slugger Bay J:Mr Finian Maguire T:Harry Derham	J:Mr Finian Maguire T:Harry Derham	150	t	-51114	129	146	123	34d	—	—	+31	36.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
3-4 for this yard but limitations were seemingly exposed in the Morebattle at Kelso
10	Manuelito Bay J:Patrick Wadge T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Patrick Wadge T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	147	—	-1P721	126	149	139	14d	—	—	+30	35.4	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Noticeably strong in the market when making all for a 2l success at Newbury; up 4lb
20	Country Park Bay J:Benjamin Macey(7) T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	J:Benjamin Macey(7) T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	142	p	232F24	121	154	121	48d	—	—	+18	24.2	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Made a respectable handicap debut at Ascot and dropping back to 2m could benefit him
15	Old Gregorian Bay J:Conner McCann(7) T:Lucinda Russell	J:Conner McCann(7) T:Lucinda Russell	144	t	611263	123	152	132	34d	—	—	+25	30.1	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Solid third in the Morebattle but again he may have no more than place aspirations
6	Washington Brown J:Conor Stone-Walsh(3) T:Harry Derham	J:Conor Stone-Walsh(3) T:Harry Derham	152	—	9P-110	131	151	110	55d	—	—	+18	21.2	7.00/1	28/1 3%
2-3 for Harry Derham and reasonable to put a line though his latest Newbury effort
2	Fiercely Proud Bay J:Callum Pritchard(5) T:Ben Pauling	J:Callum Pritchard(5) T:Ben Pauling	158	p	7-F61P	137	152	141	55d	—	—	+19	22.6	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Career-best form in his Ascot win and there were valid excuses last time at Newbury
13	She's A Saint Bay J:Tristan Durrell(3) T:Dan Skelton	J:Tristan Durrell(3) T:Dan Skelton	145	—	2122/2	124	152	128	314d	—	—	+21	24.5	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Classy mare, still lightly raced; able when fresh and could have been saved for this
14	Luttrell Lad Bay J:Cameron Iles(5) T:Tom Lacey	J:Cameron Iles(5) T:Tom Lacey	145	tp	-40641	124	154	129	45d	—	—	+27	29.2	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Ran well in this last year and he's back after a return to winning ways at Taunton
5	Kings Hill Grey J:Jack G Gilligan(5) T:Paul John Gilligan	J:Jack G Gilligan(5) T:Paul John Gilligan	153	—	32370P	132	149	132	41d	—	—	+20	21.4	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Will need to run a lot better than in his last three handicaps; opposable
22	Tapley Grey J:Elizabeth Gale(7) T:Suzy Smith	J:Elizabeth Gale(7) T:Suzy Smith	142	—	864500	121	149	132	27d	—	—	+17	18.1	16.50/1	66/1 1%
66-1 when well held in the Imperial Cup last time and he is again up against it
NR	Lump Sum Bay J:Mr William Biddick T:Sam Thomas	J:Mr William Biddick T:Sam Thomas	168	—	-12420	147	145	130	27d	—	—	—	31.3	—	—
Disappointed last time and regular partner Dylan Johnston rides stablemate Celtic Dino
NR	Lario Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:Harry Derham	J:NON-RUNNER T:Harry Derham	146	tp	30-322	125	153	137	34d	—	—	—	18.8	—	—
0-6 for current yard and doesn't look on an overly generous mark; cheekpieces first time
NR	Diamonds For Luck Chestnut J:Lewis Saunders(7) T:Olly Murphy	J:Lewis Saunders(7) T:Olly Murphy	143	—	-22111	122	152	127	36d	—	—	—	42.5	—	—
Unexposed handicap debutant who arrives here after three no-nonsense novice wins
NR	Cormier Bay J:William Maggs(5) T:Brian Ellison	J:William Maggs(5) T:Brian Ellison	142	p	3U0/06	121	150	112	34d	—	—	—	17.8	—	—
Limited appeal on what he's shown in two handicaps following a long absence

Retains potential but has something to prove under these ground conditions
