Likely better for recent hurdles outing; 2lb lower than for his two chases win here.
11	You Say Its Over Grey J:Alice Stevens T:Micky Hammond	J:Alice Stevens T:Micky Hammond	142	b	6434-3	74	102	80	35d	—	—	-1	13	11/2 15%
Usually makes the frame here but may need to find more in blinkers to upgrade to a win.
7	Uptown Harry b/br J:William Maggs T:Jane Walton	J:William Maggs T:Jane Walton	148	p	646P-5	80	108	96	17d	—	0W/1P 1 run	0	10.6	7/1 13%
Well down the weights; it has to be taken on trust that recent return has brought him on.
9	Whispering Dancer Bay J:Ben Smith(3) T:Susan Corbett	J:Ben Smith(3) T:Susan Corbett	142	p	1/05-9	74	-	-	33d	—	—	+3	14.1	17/2 11%
Well held in three sub-3m novice hurdles but no surprise if he improves for fences.
5	Gibberwell Bay J:Philip Armson T:Jake Thomas Coulson	J:Philip Armson T:Jake Thomas Coulson	153	b	P2P15-	85	104	85	207d	—	—	+7	19.8	15/2 12%
Good C&D record; lack of a recent run found him out in this last year and may again today.
6	Shesupincourt Bay J:Ned Fox T:Ryan Potter	J:Ned Fox T:Ryan Potter	149	tp	242-85	81	106	61	25d	—	—	+2	10	10/1 9%
Winless outside mares-only company; would need a lot of rain to become of interest.
10	Iturgeon Du Breuil Grey J:Shane Fenelon T:Barry Murtagh	J:Shane Fenelon T:Barry Murtagh	142	p	433P46	74	102	54	8d	—	—	+1	9.1	10/1 9%
Out of the weights this time but in the frame on five out of seven visits to Hexham.
2	King Of Cong Bay J:Tom Midgley(3) T:Sam England	J:Tom Midgley(3) T:Sam England	160	p	0-760P	92	-	-	35d	—	—	+5	12.6	12/1 8%
Bit of encouragement over hurdles here in August hasn't been built on; cheekpieces go on.
1	I See The Sea Brown J:Charlie Maggs T:Christopher Kellett	J:Charlie Maggs T:Christopher Kellett	168	—	P612-6	100	102	63	11d	—	—	+8	14.4	14/1 7%
Overcame awkward jumping to run Gibberwell close over C&D in March; poor return outing.
3	Don Brocco Grey J:Conor Rabbitt T:Gary Rutherford	J:Conor Rabbitt T:Gary Rutherford	155	tb	6P1P3-	87	104	91	239d	—	—	+9	18.4	16/1 6%
Good third over 4m here when last seen; would have appealed more with a recent run.
8	Eveque Chestnut J:Peter Kavanagh T:Jane Walton	J:Peter Kavanagh T:Jane Walton	146	—	0/788-	78	104	58	269d	—	—	+4	8	28/1 3%
Operating well below the form level of his January 2024 Sedgefield win when last seen.
