2nd	1	—	Classical Sting (G) P Didn't show a great deal in 3 maiden hurdles last winter but bred to be a chaser and a totally different proposition when making a winning handicap debut over fences at Kelso in November. Held back b…	88-12P2	R P McLernon L Morgan	6	75.3kg	5.50 9/2
1st	2	—	This Sway (G) FAV First form over hurdles granted run of the race when fourth in a C&D novice but hasn't kicked on from that subsequently, finishing well held ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, soft) a mo…	69143-2	Tom Broughton M Comley	5	72.1kg	2.50 6/4
—	3	—	Beorma (M) Pulled Up Just modest form at best in bumpers for Thomas Gallagher and looked a stable lesser light in 2024. Missed all of 2025 but interesting what the market makes of her on handicap debut.	111111	Tristan Durrell D Skelton	7	71.7kg	17 16/1
3rd	4	—	Lone Soldier (G) Free-going type who is a long-standing maiden. Placed twice over fences during the winter and a player if replicating that over hurdles.	253U42-	C J Todd C & A Pogson	8	67.6kg	4 3/1
5th	5	—	Steel Soldier (G) Little impact in Irish points and big prices all starts but showed a lot more when third of 9 at Huntingdon 11 days ago. Major player from the same mark if he's in the same form.	6-99073	Conor Rabbitt J R Norton	6	67.1kg	9 8/1
6th	6	—	Blazing Gaden (G) Cityscape gelding who has offered precious little on each of his 3 starts in maiden hurdles this winter. Hopes rest on switch to handicaps.	—	Finn Lambert D J Jeffreys	5	65.8kg	21 20/1
4th	7	—	Dino Moon (G) Limited impact in 4 starts but not a bad sort physically and he's bred to be a lot better than this lowly mark. Likely improver.	67084-	Conor Ring Evan Williams	5	65.8kg	9 8/1

Betting forecast: This Sway (6/4), Lone Soldier (3/1), Classical Sting (9/2), Dino Moon (8/1), Steel Soldier (8/1), Beorma (16/1), Blazing Gaden (20/1)
