Pedigree and other factors suggest this step up in trip is well worth exploring
4	No Ordinary Joe b Aidan Kelly · Nicky Henderson	Aidan Kelly · Nicky Henderson	161	—	27-P83	140	151	118	20d	—	—	+18	24.1	12/1 8%

Successful twice over 2m4f this term but recent efforts suggest he can be opposed
11	Angels Breath gr Dylan Johnston · Sam Thomas	Dylan Johnston · Sam Thomas	157	—	-27445	136	149	128	33d	—	—	+21	23.1	33/1 3%
0-7 for current yard and it's hard to envisage him landing this hot contest aged ten
18	Bingoo b Patrick Wadge · James Moffatt	Patrick Wadge · James Moffatt	151	—	311-10	130	145	89	13d	—	—	+18	20.6	33/1 3%

Formerly useful; record for current stable is far from convincing; new headgear
21	Shared b Alice Stevens · Harry Derham	Alice Stevens · Harry Derham	146	b	03-139	125	144	125	6d	—	—	+18	19	80/1 1%
Worth a crack at 2m4f but still has something to prove in strongly contested handicaps
1	Magic Tricks b Charlie O'Dwyer · Gordon Elliott	Charlie O'Dwyer · Gordon Elliott	166	p	/98140	145	146	131	40d	—	—	+28	29	80/1 1%
Exposed sort who is vulnerable off top weight and has something to prove over the new trip
2	Hollow Games b Kieren Buckley · Gordon Elliott	Kieren Buckley · Gordon Elliott	165	tb	4-3P9U	144	146	-	40d	—	—	+23	23.7	80/1 1%

Seemingly outstayed over 2m4f last month and evidently needs a return to shorter
NR	Teddy Blue b Niall Houlihan · Gary Moore	Niall Houlihan · Gary Moore	152	tp	2U9964	131	148	133	27d	—	—	—	20.3	—
Not disgraced the last twice but is likely to be outstayed over this stiff 2m4f
NR	Thanksforthehelp gr Mark McDonagh · David Pipe	Mark McDonagh · David Pipe	146	tp	101-P0	125	146	110	20d	—	—	—	18.8	—
