2	That's Nice Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	164	—	1/141-	126	-	-	301d	—	—	+9	33.3	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Point/dual hurdle winner; big player on chase/handicap debut having schooled well at home.
4	Pony Soprano Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	159	—	1358-3	121	134	120	26d	—	—	+9	25.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Tough ask on last month's chase debut but this is a little easier back in a handicap.
1	Reallyntruthfully Bay J:Ciaran Gethings T:Kim Bailey & Mat Nicholls	J:Ciaran Gethings T:Kim Bailey & Mat Nicholls	168	—	5219-1	130	138	122	45d	—	—	+19	34.4	1.25/1	5/1 17%
7lb higher but there was plenty to like about last month's successful chase debut; player.
6	U Cant Be Serious Chestnut J:Freddie Gingell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Freddie Gingell T:Joe Tizzard	157	—	/7133-	119	-	-	261d	—	—	+19	30.7	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Likely type to progress over fences but this looks a stiff task after a break.
5	Tom Doniphon Brown J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	158	—	2112-4	120	130	108	22d	—	—	+11	19.9	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Shaped promisingly on last month's chase debut and can improve on that back up in trip.
8	Barlovento Bay J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	155	—	1/122-	117	-	-	300d	—	—	+17	26.3	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Type to do well over fences and one to consider after wind surgery back from a break.
7	Rivers Corner Bay J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	156	b	76312-	118	137	119	240d	1W/1P 1 run	—	+26	32.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Has taken well to fences but would make more appeal given a stiffer stamina test.
3	Denemethy Bay J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	161	t	13222-	123	134	122	208d	—	—	+28	33.5	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Consistent 7yo who is likely to give his running after a break; tough mark, though.
9	Lemoncello Bay J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	152	—	P4250-	114	-	-	261d	—	—	+15	19.4	6.25/1	25/1 4%
French hurdle/chase winner but 0-5 in Britain and has something to prove after a break.
