2 (1)	Barefoot Warrior Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	133	—	311-	87	101	85	209d	—	—	+5	38.4	0.38/1	6/4 40%
2-3; has potential off his opening mark and he's firmly in calculations
1 (3)	Mr King Grey J:P J McDonald T:Iain Jardine	J:P J McDonald T:Iain Jardine	135	t	70300-	89	102	92	164d	—	—	+1	15.3	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Close third at Ayr last September and returns having had wind surgery; not ruled out
11 (2)	Classic Encounter Bay J:Pat Cosgrave T:George Boughey	J:Pat Cosgrave T:George Boughey	123	—	2/553-	77	100	-	140d	—	—	0	14.3	1.50/1	6/1 14%
0-6 and doesn't seem straightforward, but peak RPR came on his sole turf outing
7 (7)	Great Blasket Bay J:Alec Voikhansky(3) T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	J:Alec Voikhansky(3) T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	126	p	68386-	80	103	90	177d	—	—	+4	11.1	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Runs off last winning mark and reappears with dual-purpose yard among winners on the Flat
6 (9)	Good Morning Alex Bay J:Callum Rodriguez T:David & Nicola Barron	J:Callum Rodriguez T:David & Nicola Barron	126	—	11664-	80	100	92	182d	—	—	+8	14.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Form dipped last August-October, following prolific spell, but a break may have helped
5 (10)	Cruyff Turn Chestnut J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	130	—	01955-	84	102	94	146d	—	—	+7	13.2	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Might need this reappearance run but he's 3-6 here and is not discounted
4 (4)	Austrian Theory Bay J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	130	—	42410-	84	99	92	149d	—	—	+12	18.7	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Won on penultimate outing last season but over 1m2f
9 (12)	Empire Of Light Bay J:Harrison Shaw T:Grant Tuer	J:Harrison Shaw T:Grant Tuer	125	—	32224-	79	100	88	163d	—	—	+11	17	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Often ran well last season (including over C&D); one to be interested in on return
10 (5)	Hale End Bay J:Connor Beasley T:Michael Dods	J:Connor Beasley T:Michael Dods	125	—	15280-	79	103	98	185d	—	—	+8	13.4	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Two wins last season and his reappearance record suggests he could have a part to play
8 (6)	Barley Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Tim Easterby	J:Cam Hardie T:Tim Easterby	126	p	72835-	80	101	88	164d	—	—	+8	12.1	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Ran well first time up last term and he's a competitive mark on the pick of his 2024 form
12 (8)	Reidh Bay J:Shane Gray T:Richard Fahey	J:Shane Gray T:Richard Fahey	122	—	59080-	76	102	89	152d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+4	7.5	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Below par at end of last season but has positive reappearance record and is well treated
3 (11)	Theme Park Bay J:Rowan Scott T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Rowan Scott T:Nigel Tinkler	131	—	15819-	85	99	79	185d	—	—	+16	18.5	10.00/1	40/1 2%
