8	Palamon Chestnut J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	159	t	U69645	111	125	102	26d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-15	30.3	0.25/1	Evens 50%
Nothing for current yard but off a reduced mark here and he's back on good ground
4	Busty Boy Chestnut J:Sean Bowen T:Daragh Bourke	J:Sean Bowen T:Daragh Bourke	165	—	22-233	117	128	122	54d	—	—	+7	20.8	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Nearly won over this far at Carlisle on his reappearance and not disgraced since
10	Rule Me In Bay J:Jack Tudor T:Christian Williams	J:Jack Tudor T:Christian Williams	142	—	843544	94	118	102	16d	—	—	+3	15.5	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Won over hurdles but no closer than 25l in five runs over fences and he's hard to trust
3	Anyharminasking Bay J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	167	p	02P267	119	127	101	22d	—	—	+15	22.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Does seem happier on good ground than soft, so last two efforts could be excused
5	The Good Doctor Bay J:Ben Jones T:Ben Pauling	J:Ben Jones T:Ben Pauling	163	t	P4-345	115	125	85	39d	—	—	+12	18	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Poor the last twice but has the form to feature and a tongue-tie could be significant
9	Lady Jago Chestnut J:Kielan Woods T:Donald McCain	J:Kielan Woods T:Donald McCain	155	—	433807	107	127	112	95d	—	—	+12	17.2	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Bought for £10,000 in July and hasn't recaptured her best form for new yard
6	Nativehill Bay J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	J:Jonathan Burke T:Fergal O'Brien	162	t	1/21P-	114	-	-	382d	—	—	+19	24.5	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Last seen pulling up in a hurdle at 2025 Cheltenham Festival; lightly raced; new yard
1	Bleu d'Enfer Grey J:Charlie Maggs(3) T:Donald McCain	J:Charlie Maggs(3) T:Donald McCain	170	tp	-05748	122	125	114	31d	—	—	+14	19.5	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Chance on his penultimate effort and had wind surgery since tailed off last time
2	Doyouknowwhatimean Bay J:Benjamin Macey(5) T:Gary Hanmer	J:Benjamin Macey(5) T:Gary Hanmer	168	—	13P2PP	120	127	120	41d	—	—	+15	18.6	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Form figures speak for themselves; he's risky but also capable, as he showed in December
NR	Kahavari Grey J:Toby Wynne T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	J:Toby Wynne T:Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	160	t	U64252	112	123	116	23d	—	—	—	23	—	—
Should run well if coping with the good ground which would be a first for him
