2nd	2	—	Soldierofthestorm (G) Off for 8 months prior but landed a gamble when winning a 14-runner handicap hurdle (9/4) at Catterick (19.3f, good) 15 days ago. Up to a career-high mark now sent chasing.	40-1214	Jonjo O'Neill Jr. J & A O'Neill	8	74.4kg	7 6/1

3rd	6	—	Pepe Le Moko (G) P Has dropped down the weights and produced his best effort for some time when second of 9 in handicap chase at Ludlow (20f, soft) 26 days ago. Player if able to back that up.	63-F423	C Gethings Mrs J Williams	8	72.6kg	7.50 13/2
6th	7	—	Zestful Hope (G) P Fair handicap hurdler/chaser who notched second success over fences when cosily landing a fast-ground Huntingdon handicap in October. Subsequent efforts have lacked spark, though, and he needs to bou…	59563-4	David Bass C E Longsdon	9	71.7kg	23 22/1
5th	8	—	Ede'iffs Rock (M) P Bagged third victory of last season when taking a 5-runner Taunton handicap chase (23f, soft) in February. Well backed returning from 9 months off last time but fell 5 out when still in front. Intere…	13-F511	Harry Kimber Kathy Turner	8	70.3kg	12 11/1
—	9	—	Just Forty (G) Pulled Up T Fair maiden hurdler in France and improved when runner-up in a 6-runner 4-y-o conditions event on second start over fences in June. Subsequently changed hands for €20,000 but hasn't fired either outi…	25-425P	James Bowen W Greatrex	5	68kg	41 40/1

4th	11	—	I Ain't Your Mate (G) Bought for £120,000 after placing in a couple of Irish points and the latest of last season's 3 runs over hurdles was a step in the right direction, finishing fourth of 14 in a Wincanton maiden (15.2…	32/964-4	Jack Tudor Christian Williams	6	67.1kg	11 10/1
