If forgiven final run, and it was three months ago, then he's not without hope
4 (3)	Unassuming Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	133	tp	253-45	89	104	80	16d	—	—	-2	14.8	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Good strike-rate; looks handicapped about right now but unlikely to be far away
11 (5)	Dosman Bay J:Jonny Peate T:Oli Rix	J:Jonny Peate T:Oli Rix	130	—	038-32	86	104	83	14d	—	—	-3	14	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Unlucky not to have opened his handicap account last time at Newcastle; good chance
9 (8)	Crack On Boys Bay J:David Egan T:Tom Clover	J:David Egan T:Tom Clover	131	—	3156-8	87	102	84	35d	—	—	+1	12.6	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Ran in a Class 2 last time but that was his third below-par performance in succession
5 (10)	Zryan Bay J:Cieren Fallon T:David O'Meara	J:Cieren Fallon T:David O'Meara	133	—	512-01	89	101	75	20d	—	—	+3	12.4	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Quickened up best off slow fractions to win over 1m2f at Newcastle 20 days ago
2 (7)	Angel Hunter Bay J:Sean Levey T:Richard Hannon	J:Sean Levey T:Richard Hannon	134	b	1710-0	90	103	85	16d	—	—	+5	12.1	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Competitively treated should the first-time headgear trigger a return to form
7 (1)	Eldrickjones Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Roger Fell	J:Oisin Murphy T:Roger Fell	131	—	7414-4	87	102	81	21d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+3	11.5	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Last two runs not his best but fairly treated if Oisin Murphy can get him firing
8 (12)	Londoner Chestnut J:Jack Doughty T:Daniel & Claire Kubler	J:Jack Doughty T:Daniel & Claire Kubler	131	tb	320-23	87	102	90	20d	—	—	+5	11	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Ideally positioned last time in Zryan's race but still couldn't get the job done
1 (4)	Dingle Bay J:Jason Watson T:Julie Camacho	J:Jason Watson T:Julie Camacho	134	—	1102-1	90	101	42	29d	—	—	+16	21.6	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Up 3lb for recent Newcastle win and he's pretty consistent on most of the AW tracks
12 (11)	Rogue Encore Bay J:Luke Morris T:Peter Chapple-Hyam	J:Luke Morris T:Peter Chapple-Hyam	130	p	3271-5	86	103	92	35d	—	—	+4	10.7	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Goes well at Newcastle where he shaped nicely after a break in a Class 2 last month
6 (2)	Midnight Lion Brown J:Lauren Young(5) T:Jim Goldie	J:Lauren Young(5) T:Jim Goldie	132	—	1561-1	88	101	87	50d	—	—	+16	20.9	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Made it nine wins at Newcastle last time but he has only raced the twice here
10 (6)	Invited Bay J:Pat Cosgrave T:George Boughey	J:Pat Cosgrave T:George Boughey	131	t	5781-5	87	101	82	38d	—	—	+7	10.2	12.50/1	50/1 2%
7f too sharp last time; all handicap wins at Class 4 level and this is a Class 3
