Smart; did well to get up in steadily run Grade 1 at the DRF; stronger pace here can help
10	Sober Glory b Ben Jones · Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	Ben Jones · Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	161	—	1-1411	148	155	151	31d	—	—	+23	34.8	6/1 14%
Beaten only once; impressive at Newbury last time; should make a bold bid from the front
6	Mighty Park b Mark Walsh · W P Mullins	Mark Walsh · W P Mullins	161	—	2-1	-	156	114	54d	—	—	+6	16.6	13/2 13%

Favourite for this race prior to a Formby defeat that can be excused; remains of interest
3	El Cairos ch Jack Kennedy · Gordon Elliott	Jack Kennedy · Gordon Elliott	161	—	15-2F1	-	138	71	40d	—	—	-7	2.7	15/2 12%
Clumsy at the final flight in both hurdles attempts but has a big engine; shortlisted
1	Baron Noir b Tom Bellamy · Alan King	Tom Bellamy · Alan King	161	—	3-1211	130	138	114	59d	—	—	+20	22.9	40/1 2%

Quite useful on Flat and still unexposed over hurdles; may build on Punchestown maiden win
9	Sageborough b Sean O'Keeffe · Paul Nolan	Sean O'Keeffe · Paul Nolan	161	—	17	-	132	99	100d	—	—	+6	7.2	500/1 0%
