Kept on to snatch fourth on recent hurdle debut but has quite a bit to find here
2	Lewisham Grove Bay J:Sean Quinlan T:Jennie Candlish	J:Sean Quinlan T:Jennie Candlish	170	—	F55622	112	105	75	57d	—	—	—	24	—	—

No match for first two when third on hurdle debut but each-way claims once more
4	Milan Park Bay J:William Maggs(5) T:Chris Grant	J:William Maggs(5) T:Chris Grant	163	—	53-244	105	107	96	15d	—	—	—	13.8	—	—
Unexposed making a quick switch to handicaps but his mark isn't obviously generous
5	Kelvin Forlonge Bay J:Patrick Wadge T:Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	J:Patrick Wadge T:Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	163	—	54-551	105	113	79	40d	—	—	—	13.8	—	—
Well beaten in two Kelso novices this term; likely improver up in trip on handicap debut
6	Western Mount Bay J:TBC T:Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith	J: T:Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith	159	—	79-744	101	105	84	25d	—	—	—	12.8	—	—
Hasn't shown enough across his four starts to suggest he'll be making an impact today
7	On The Go Bay J:TBC T:Charlie Longsdon	J: T:Charlie Longsdon	159	—	84-331	101	109	90	60d	—	—	—	12.8	—	—

Maiden; went very close off just 1lb lower in this race last year; possibilities back here
9	Super Citizen Bay J:TBC T:Lucinda Hughes	J: T:Lucinda Hughes	156	—	-85414	98	-	-	12d	—	—	—	19	—	—
Won in refitted cheekpieces last month but this veteran has become hard to predict
10	Princesse Milania Bay J:Jamie Hamilton T:Mark Walford	J:Jamie Hamilton T:Mark Walford	155	—	091133	97	112	93	35d	—	0W/1P 1 run	—	24.9	—	—
Third at Catterick in hat-trick bid; can build on that effort at this more galloping track
11	Always A Reason Bay J:Ross Chapman T:Rebecca Menzies	J:Ross Chapman T:Rebecca Menzies	154	—	65-512	96	108	92	27d	—	—	—	11.5	—	—
Southwell winner off 3lb lower; open to further progress after only six races
12	Star Vantage Bay J:TBC T:Rebecca Menzies	J: T:Rebecca Menzies	145	—	2F6465	87	115	111	14d	—	—	—	9.3	—	—
0-29 and below par last time but third of 16 in this last year; place claims now back here
13	Apieceovfortune Chestnut J:Paul O'Brien T:Pam Sly	J:Paul O'Brien T:Pam Sly	145	—	42-016	87	107	96	25d	—	—	—	9.3	—	—
Catterick was disappointing but a 3m winner the time before and could bounce back
14	Long Time Listener Bay J:TBC T:Tim Easterby	J: T:Tim Easterby	142	—	F73-09	84	105	67	43d	—	—	—	8.5	—	—
15	King Casey Grey J:TBC T:Joanne Foster	J: T:Joanne Foster	139	—	P-6484	81	113	70	9d	—	—	—	7.8	—	—
An eight-race maiden and was tailed off at Newcastle last month after a break
16	Iamcelestialgift Chestnut J:TBC T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson	J: T:David Killahena & Graeme McPherson		—	1-40	98	97	55	30d	—	—	—	19	—	—
Didn't convince over this trip latest; yet to encounter a field anywhere near this big.
