Denied by a head on last week's chase debut (3m, soft); 6lb well in out again quickly.
2	Hill Of Tara Bay J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	165	—	/5P6-4	97	111	92	32d	—	—	+2	15.8	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Can reverse Exeter form with Fat Faced Columbo and Mythe Bridge if the rain continues.

Disappointing in this race last year; gone close at Ffos Las since; cheekpieces added.
3	Streamsforth Lad Bay J:Benjamin Macey(7) T:Gary Hanmer	J:Benjamin Macey(7) T:Gary Hanmer	162	t	-63533	94	-	-	23d	—	—	+10	19.9	1.75/1	7/1 13%

8	Community Rebel Bay J:Joshua Thompson(7) T:Micky Hammond	J:Joshua Thompson(7) T:Micky Hammond	149	—	P58P6U	81	109	80	11d	—	—	+5	8.8	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Blameless exit latest, but mostly struggling for current connections despite easing mark.
10	Worth The Walk Bay J:Danny McMenamin T:Micky Hammond	J:Danny McMenamin T:Micky Hammond	143	—	/687-P	75	-	-	18d	—	—	+4	7.1	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Pulled up some way out on handicap/chase/seasonal debut (3m, heavy); best watched.
5	Three Figs Bay J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Sean Houlihan T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	156	p	405	88	-	-	24d	—	—	+7	10.5	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Pedigree doesn't scream staying chaser; passed over on h'cap/chase debut; cheekpieces on.
12	Miami Jim Bay J:Ben Poste T:Rosemary Gasson	J:Ben Poste T:Rosemary Gasson	142	p	P-3758	74	103	88	15d	—	—	+4	6.8	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Outpaced over C&D two runs back (good); even further out of the weights this time.

Minor claims on the Warwick fourth of his final 2023-24 outing; no form since return.
NR	Fat Faced Columbo Bay J:TBC T:Richard Mitford-Slade	J: T:Richard Mitford-Slade	158	—	P243-2	90	106	96	32d	—	—	—	15	—	—
Mythe Bridge and Hill Of Tara behind when just failing on Exeter chase/handicap debut.
NR	Delgany Deadline Grey Roan J:TBC T:Dan Skelton	J: T:Dan Skelton	150	—	0652-4	82	-	-	44d	—	—	—	8	—	—
Another step forward on hurdles return; no staying chase prowess in immediate pedigree.
