5	Al Mootamarid Bay J:Robert Dunne T:Dominic Elsworth	J:Robert Dunne T:Dominic Elsworth	155	t	69-421	96	105	94	26d	—	—	-12	22.3	0.47/1	15/8 35%
Recent course winner; up 6lb but this 4yo seems to be improving
3	G'Day Aussie Bay J:Jay Tidball(5) T:Dave Roberts	J:Jay Tidball(5) T:Dave Roberts	159	t	454-11	95	109	78	9d	—	—	-4	17.9	0.83/1	10/3 23%
In-form veteran and essentially just 1lb higher than for his clearcut win at Bangor
1	Ikigai Star Brown J:Lilly Pinchin T:Charlie Longsdon	J:Lilly Pinchin T:Charlie Longsdon	168	p	3F7-14	104	100	81	18d	—	—	+1	18.7	1.00/1	4/1 20%
A fader last time but the form of his previous win off 3lb lower has worked out very well
4	Battle Of Omdurman Bay J:David Bass T:Deborah Cole	J:David Bass T:Deborah Cole	156	t	P43-33	97	108	82	30d	—	—	+4	14.8	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Looks vulnerable off current mark unless the new tongue-tie brings him on
7	Baikal Bay J:Joe Anderson(3) T:Grace Harris	J:Joe Anderson(3) T:Grace Harris	144	p	3906-4	80	109	82	—	—	—	+1	9.9	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Last hurdle win in 2023 but down the weights and fair Flat efforts of late
2	Asian Star Bay J:Harry Atkins(7) T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Atkins(7) T:Dan Skelton	167	—	12P-54	103	106	-	43d	—	—	+8	15.2	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Chasing the last twice and well held; novice hurdle form suggests this mark is okay
6	Floating Rock Bay J:Chris Ward(3) T:Michael Gates	J:Chris Ward(3) T:Michael Gates	154	—	6/P3P-	90	105	77	389d	—	—	+7	11	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Third over hurdles before the rein broke back chasing; has been off for 13 months
