Gained a breakthrough win in good style and the penalty may not prevent another bold bid.
4	Galactic Jack Bay J:Caoilin Quinn T:Gary & Josh Moore	J:Caoilin Quinn T:Gary & Josh Moore	154	tp	P45/P4	86	100	51	16d	—	—	-2	13.4	1.25/1	5/1 17%
0-7 over hurdles and has yet to find his form following a long absence; best watched.

Latest C&D run offered some encouragement and he's well treated, but he needs to step up.

Went close to breaking his duck in November; worth considering down in trip after a break.
3	Daring To Dream Bay J:James Best T:Harriet Dickin	J:James Best T:Harriet Dickin	157	h	-68473	89	98	81	25d	—	—	+5	15.8	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Shaped well when a staying-on third on handicap debut latest and open to further progress.
9	Saucats Bay J:Ben Godfrey T:Joe Tickle	J:Ben Godfrey T:Joe Tickle	142	t	3P0945	74	102	95	10d	—	—	0	8.5	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Longstanding maiden who has a bit to find with Little Lady Lucy, but could make the frame.
5	Pillar The Poet Bay J:Ciaran Gethings T:I Chanin	J:Ciaran Gethings T:I Chanin	154	h	5-6340	86	97	57	15d	—	—	+4	10.7	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Well held on both hurdle starts for this stable; needs to step up considerably to figure.
7	Miss Fedora Bay J:Harry Reed T:Nick Scholfield	J:Harry Reed T:Nick Scholfield	149	—	5P84RP	81	100	-	29d	—	—	+5	8.8	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Out of form over fences, but reverts to hurdles on a fair mark if she can find some spark.
11	Blazing Gaden Bay J:James Turner(5) T:D J Jeffreys	J:James Turner(5) T:D J Jeffreys	142	—	P066	74	84	76	51d	—	—	+4	6.8	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Has shown little in four runs over hurdles so far, but the better ground may help.
2	Most Wanted Chestnut J:Tom Cannon T:David Bridgwater	J:Tom Cannon T:David Bridgwater	158	—	45-44P	90	101	74	184d	—	—	+8	10.8	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Yet to fire over hurdles and returns from a 184-day break with something to prove.
