Ran big race when fifth on recent stable debut and this longer trip will suit; shortlisted
1	Ilitch Bay J:Charlie Hammond T:Stuart Edmunds	J:Charlie Hammond T:Stuart Edmunds	170	—	1-4528	112	108	102	36d	—	—	+6	29.4	0.63/1	5/2 29%
Flopped badly last time (bled); contender if judged on previous Doncaster second
2	Breezethroughlife Bay J:Jack Quinlan T:Neil King	J:Jack Quinlan T:Neil King	168	t	3152P5	110	112	99	31d	—	—	+9	22.1	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Second on handicap debut; struggled on next two outings; had wind op last month
6	Alan Bresil Bay J:Harry Reed T:Nick Scholfield	J:Harry Reed T:Nick Scholfield	163	p	344575	105	109	98	15d	—	—	+5	17.1	1.50/1	6/1 14%
0-6 over hurdles but not beaten that far at Ascot recently and this race looks easier
7	Raby Mere Bay J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Caroline Fryer	J:Lewis Stones(3) T:Caroline Fryer	156	p	245441	98	112	84	20d	—	—	+15	24.9	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Back in prime form at Southwell last week and also has a course win on his CV; respected
3	Tropical Speed Bay J:Chad Bament(7) T:Andy Irvine	J:Chad Bament(7) T:Andy Irvine	166	b	3124P1	108	111	98	137d	—	—	+23	28.3	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Off since making all at Lingfield in November but this faster ground may suit even better
8	The Wise Traveller Bay J:Jamie Gambin(7) T:Sarah Humphrey	J:Jamie Gambin(7) T:Sarah Humphrey	152	—	14777P	94	112	113	7d	—	—	+8	12.2	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Generally disappointing since Plumpton win in September; pulled up there last week
4	Mahon Falls Bay J:Shane Quinlan(3) T:Katy Price	J:Shane Quinlan(3) T:Katy Price	165	—	262233	107	103	97	15d	—	—	+21	24.1	12.50/1	50/1 2%
