3 (2)	Valedictory Bay J:William Buick T:John & Thady Gosden	J:William Buick T:John & Thady Gosden	134	—	3/41-	84	96	78	191d	—	—	-19	25.6	0.25/1	Evens 50%
Unexposed after three races, latest a win; promising for this seasonal and handicap debut
9 (7)	Jupiter Ammon Chestnut J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	131	—	6225-3	81	97	90	45d	—	—	+2	14.4	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Defeat when 4-7 in a novice event last time heightens concern over lingering maiden status
15 (12)	King Al Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Alan King	J:Rossa Ryan T:Alan King	126	—	05125-	76	98	89	—	—	—	+7	18.3	1.63/1	13/2 13%
C&D winner who won his latest hurdle race; should be primed to run well again
4 (5)	Bulletin Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Jonathan Portman	J:Rob Hornby T:Jonathan Portman	134	—	23143-	84	96	86	166d	—	—	+13	20.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Basically highly reliable and it would be no surprise if he's seriously involved
2 (10)	Rathgar Chestnut J:Tom Marquand T:Jack Channon	J:Tom Marquand T:Jack Channon	135	p	2300-4	85	97	73	21d	—	—	+4	10.7	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Thereabouts if the returning cheekpieces (worn once in 2024) don't have an adverse effect
1 (15)	Twisting Physics Bay J:Jamie Spencer T:Oliver Cole	J:Jamie Spencer T:Oliver Cole	135	—	41/21-	85	98	50	310d	—	—	+4	10.6	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Has had just four races over his previous two seasons, with two wins, latest a 7f win here
7 (9)	Triple Double A Brown J:James Doyle T:Hugo Palmer	J:James Doyle T:Hugo Palmer	132	tp	544-17	82	95	67	21d	—	—	+3	9.8	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Well held (made most) in warm 1m3f AW race at Kempton latest; needs to resume improvement
6 (1)	Sportingsilvermine Brown J:Cieren Fallon T:James Owen	J:Cieren Fallon T:James Owen	132	h	3227-0	82	97	88	14d	—	—	+4	9.5	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Reliable last term; 1m6f probably didn't help when he tailed off on reappearance; hood now
14 (11)	Arcturus Flame Bay J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	127	p	5263-3	77	97	86	19d	—	—	+6	11	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Each-way claims and the return of headgear (tried by his previous stable) could be a help
5 (16)	Marhaba The Champ Chestnut J:Lewis Edmunds T:Sophie Leech	J:Lewis Edmunds T:Sophie Leech	132	ht	9270-0	82	91	86	29d	—	—	+6	8.9	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Sold last July and has been comfortably held since on the Flat and over hurdles
8 (13)	The Green Mile Grey J:David Probert T:Neil Mulholland	J:David Probert T:Neil Mulholland	131	—	137/5-	81	94	46	343d	—	—	+6	8.4	16.50/1	66/1 1%
343 days off before this belated fifth race and it's hard to know how much ability remains
13 (4)	Royale Goodnight Bay J:Kieran Shoemark T:Harry Charlton	J:Kieran Shoemark T:Harry Charlton	127	h	18/2-	77	92	-	381d	—	—	+9	12.6	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Just three starts for the Kublers (same owners); unexposed and worth a market check
12 (3)	Morcar Bay J:Joe Leavy T:Richard Hannon	J:Joe Leavy T:Richard Hannon	129	b	23338-	79	95	74	229d	—	—	+11	13.5	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Suited by good/firmer and won four 1m2f handicaps, the latest last May; back from wind op
10 (14)	Baltic Voyage Bay J:Daniel Muscutt T:Marcus Tregoning	J:Daniel Muscutt T:Marcus Tregoning	131	t	904/4-	81	93	-	268d	—	—	+6	8.2	25.00/1	100/1 1%
4th for new yard in a 1m2f handicap last July was a partial revival on only race last year
NR (8)	Without Compromise Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:Antony Brittain	J:NON-RUNNER T:Antony Brittain	130	—	31-538	80	95	-	29d	—	—	—	7.5	—	—
The handicapper seems to have caught up on AW; this is only his third race on turf
NR (6)	Something Splendid Bay J:Neil Callan T:Peter Chapple-Hyam	J:Neil Callan T:Peter Chapple-Hyam	126	—	12104-	76	98	75	175d	—	—	—	15	—	—
Clearly best form in three races over 1m2f on ground softer than good last July-September
