Big odds when tailed off at around 2m; could take off now up in trip on handicap debut
1	Eton Mes Bay J:Rian Corcoran(7) T:David Pipe	J:Rian Corcoran(7) T:David Pipe	168	—	5-9444	100	103	67	15d	—	—	+1	17.2	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Unplaced all three starts over hurdles but makes handicap debut and could be unexposed
2	Tarbuck Bay J:Jack Quinlan T:Claire Dyson	J:Jack Quinlan T:Claire Dyson	167	—	414-95	99	103	64	27d	—	—	+3	15.9	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Sole win came over C&D; well held this season but return to Uttoxeter could spark revival

Raced wide - pressed leader - not fluent 5th - led after 6th - faced challenge before 3 out - hung left before last - headed and no extra inside final 110yds(op 11/2 tchd 4/1 and tchd 13/2)
5	Richardson Chestnut J:Lee Edwards T:Belinda Clarke	J:Lee Edwards T:Belinda Clarke	151	—	/511-5	83	102	97	45d	—	—	+1	10.9	2.00/1	8/1 11%
C&D winner; two successes this time last year; probably needed reappearance; possibilities
7	Rock On Tommy Grey J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Olly Murphy	J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Olly Murphy	146	tb	0-1665	78	101	78	36d	—	—	+1	9.5	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Four course wins but disappointing here just before Christmas and needs a revival

Some promise in 2024 but little encouragement since and excuses are wearing thin
