Up 7lb and into a much more competitive race but this lightly raced 6yo looks promising
8	Theonewedreamof Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	160	—	454-21	117	130	120	36d	—	—	+6	21.2	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Ex-Irish; up 5lb after Exeter 3m win but never better and should go well again
7	Me Wee Bonnie Lass Bay J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	163	p	-35U96	120	126	108	34d	—	—	+9	20.8	1.75/1	7/1 13%
3-7 over hurdles, 0-5 chasing; gave renewed hope in this sphere last time; first headgear
15	Kalista Love b/br J:Ben Poste T:Tom Symonds	J:Ben Poste T:Tom Symonds	150	—	251-51	107	133	97	23d	—	—	+7	17.1	2.13/1	17/2 11%
First go over fences when she came from off pace to win at Warwick (2m4f on good to soft)
11	Realta Liath Grey J:Sean Bowen T:Warren Greatrex	J:Sean Bowen T:Warren Greatrex	155	—	4424-1	112	135	102	36d	—	—	+19	28	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Won handicap at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in good style on chase debut but jumped to her right
6	Party Vibes Bay J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Henry Daly	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Henry Daly	165	—	P314-3	122	131	114	31d	—	—	+16	23.1	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Dual chase winner last season; player were she to return to her peak form
14	It's Easy Bay J:Ellis Collier(5) T:Evan Williams	J:Ellis Collier(5) T:Evan Williams	153	—	135-31	110	135	117	14d	—	—	+10	16.7	4.00/1	16/1 6%
2-23 over fences and it looks as if soft or preferably heavy ground is a necessity
5	Greyval Grey J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	166	—	511-52	123	126	67	41d	—	—	+14	20	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Probably stretched by the extended 2m7f when second of four on chase debut latest
9	Batwomen Bay J:Conor O'Farrell T:Neil Mulholland	J:Conor O'Farrell T:Neil Mulholland	159	t	331-33	116	127	71	32d	—	—	+13	17.9	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Respectable, never-dangerous third on chase debut at Lingfield; this demands a lot more
1	Ruby Island Chestnut J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	J:Danny McMenamin T:Nicky Richards	168	—	16-214	125	125	102	28d	—	1W/1P 1 run	+15	20.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Has raised her game each season, over fences this term; interesting back up in trip
16	Ostrava Du Berlais Bay J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	150	—	3224-3	107	130	120	33d	—	—	+14	18.6	5.00/1	20/1 5%
2-17 over fences; probably stays 2m4f; more to prove on worse than good to soft
3	Ilovethenightlife Bay J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	167	b	54U-22	124	128	81	14d	—	—	+15	19.7	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Jumping to her right was a big problem at Bangor latest; different headgear is given a go
2	Georgi Girl Chestnut J:Callum Pritchard(3) T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Callum Pritchard(3) T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	167	p	3533-4	124	129	113	33d	—	—	+16	19.6	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Concern about her jumping last term and it was clearly a problem on last month's return
12	Sunday Soldier Chestnut J:James Best T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson	J:James Best T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson	155	p	65-344	112	132	101	23d	—	—	+13	16.3	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Well below form back over fences on last two outings but she is down to a good mark
10	Lady Jago Chestnut J:Theo Gillard T:Donald McCain	J:Theo Gillard T:Donald McCain	157	—	124338	114	129	116	47d	—	—	+19	21.2	20.00/1	80/1 1%
3-11 chasing; tailed off over hurdles latest and good ground would seemingly be preferable
NR	Sainte Doctor Grey J:Richie McLernon T:Neil Mulholland	J:Richie McLernon T:Neil Mulholland	166	tp	1112-3	123	130	120	211d	—	—	—	21.3	—	—
5-16 chasing; prime form this February-May; much more to prove on worse than good to soft
