—	1	—	Born At Midnight (G) Pulled Up P Back-to-back winner of Plumpton handicap chases in March 2024 and performed with credit when making the frame on first 2 starts of this season. Struggled in better company at Fontwell last time, but …	P6P-430	Freddie Gordon Kathy Turner	11	76.2kg	13 12/1
1st	2	—	Ithaka (G) T A dual 23f hurdles winner last term who signed off with a good second at Market Rasen in March. Much better effort over fences this term when second of 7 over C&D 23 days ago. Player if in similar fo…	2-321PP	Freddie Mitchell R Potter	10	76.2kg	11 10/1
—	3	—	Heva Rose (M) Unseated Rider Won twice over fences at the end of 2023 (including C&D) but pulled up on both starts last season and returns from another 11 months off with something to prove. Has had wind surgery.	9121/PP-	Ned Fox Miss V Williams	9	75.3kg	13 12/1
—	4	—	Innisfree Lass (M) P Still to score over fences but made a creditable reappearance when second at Fontwell on reappearance. Found to be suffering from sinus problems at Uttoxeter 3 weeks later and has been dropped 3 lb f…	2P5315-	Non Runner S Edmunds	8	74.4kg	13 12/1
—	5	—	Mary's Fortune (M) Pulled Up BT Fair maiden hurdler/chaser in France at best. Winner in points since but not much promise under Rules for this yard, finishing sixth of 9 at Leicester latest. Others are preferred.	3/56-746	Rian Corcoran Tim Vaughan	8	72.1kg	15 14/1
3rd	6	—	Just In A Bit (G) FAV Promising second of 14 on 23f Worcester chase debut in June 2024. Looked open to improvement but hasn't been seen since. It'll be interesting to see what the betting makes of him.	834/2-33	Shane Quinlan Mrs M Rowley	8	71.7kg	4.33 10/3
2nd	7	—	Illogical Logic (G) Had the race sewn up when falling 2 out at Newton Abbot last May and gained quick compensation when making all back there a week later. Very much back on form when neck second at Windsor (3m) 7 weeks…	2346P-5	Toby McCain-Mitchell Christian Williams	8	71.7kg	6 5/1
—	8	—	Lightonthewing (G) Unseated Rider Back to form with a bang when seeing off Shot Boii by 5 lengths (Tuscan Rose third) at Wincanton (25f, soft) 4 weeks ago. Put back up 7 lb but he's won off higher marks before.	P1U215	C P O'Shea Mrs S Gardner	11	70.3kg	8.50 15/2
—	9	—	Tongaknoxie (G) Pulled Up Only minor promise in maiden/novice hurdles last season and well held again on Worcester handicap hurdle debut/reappearance in October. Switches to fences back from another 3 months off. Still early …	7484-7P	Callum Pritchard P Hobbs & J White	6	68.9kg	8 7/1
—	10	—	Tuscan Rose (M) Unseated Rider P Registered second hurdles success at Ffos Las on final run of last season. Easily best effort over fences this term when 8¾ lengths third of 10 to Lightonthewing at Wincanton (25f, soft, 11/2) 27 day…	PU1-4P3	Bradley Harris N P Mulholland	8	67.6kg	5.50 9/2
—	11	—	Lynsey Larue (M) Unseated Rider Dual Irish point winner but yet to better poor form under Rules, including last of 3 in 2m Leicester handicap on chase debut. The significant step up in trip this afternoon needs to prompt improvemen…	U424-1P	Ellis Collier Evan Williams	7	66.2kg	29 28/1
—	12	—	Martalmix'jac (G) Pulled Up TP Sharper for a comeback run over hurdles when third of 13 in 21f course handicap chase last month. Being dropped another 2 lb can only help. Yard also runs Just In A Bit.	573P21	Tabitha Worsley Mrs M Rowley	9	66.2kg	11 10/1
