1st	1	—	Thankyouandplease (G) Off the mark at Leicester in December but promised more than he delivered when back to form fourth at this course (21.4f, heavy) 19 days ago. Best form has come in testing conditions and may not be t…	7412U2	Paddy Hanlon S Hosie	6	76.2kg	8.50 15/2
6th	2	—	Raffles Nobu (G) TP Failed to meet expectations (evens) when third of 5 in testing ground at Lingfield last month and while clearly not one for maximum faith, he cannot be discounted given how far he's fallen in the wei…	P34213	J M Quinlan Nick Scholfield	6	76.2kg	10 9/1
4th	3	—	Ugo Bingo (G) BT Course winner turned in a rare poor effort at Exeter (21.6f, heavy) 13 days ago but reasonable to think he can bounce back with more severe headgear fitted	647-745	Brendan Powell J Tizzard	7	75.7kg	4.50 7/2
9th	4	—	Western Soldier (G) Capitalised on a falling mark to score over C&D in November but disappointed at this track (soft) last time. Return to better ground may help but others look better treated.	09U-45P	Paul O'Brien J W Mullins	8	75.3kg	13 12/1
12th	5	—	Perfect Nelson (G) Maiden has yet to match his fair bumper form over hurdles, though he's lightly raced in handicaps and was entitled to need the run (not given hard time) returning from 22-months off at Taunton 3 week…	26F06/8	Lorcan Williams J Scott	7	75.3kg	15 14/1
5th	6	—	Tyson (G) Fair runner-up in 2½m handicap for Paul Nolan and while he's made a low-key start on these shores (best excused latest run), it'll be no surprise to see Dan Skelton get a tune out of him at some poin…	51-7122	Harry Skelton D Skelton	6	74.8kg	12 11/1
3rd	7	—	Penn Avenue (F) Fair Flat winner who has hit the frame on all 4 starts over hurdles, though is proving consistent rather than progressive and may again have to settle for minor honours back in a handicap.	433395-	Jack Tudor D Pipe	4	72.6kg	9.50 17/2
7th	8	—	Frank Stamper (G) FAV H Fair Flat maiden who has shaped as though capable of winning races over hurdles, seeing out his race better than on handicap debut (when well beaten fav) to finish runner-up at Plumpton (15.9f, soft)…	47272-6	S Bowen W Greatrex	4	72.1kg	3.75 11/4
11th	9	—	Dream's Ka (G) Showed potential prior to finishing last on qualifying run at Chepstow last month and while Harry Skelton partners stable Tyson, he's not one to sleep on if supported on handicap bow.	07-2121	C J Todd D Skelton	4	71.7kg	41 40/1
8th	10	—	Daany (G) Front-running C&D winner has fallen below his latest winning mark but again goes without the hood that has been present for all his previous victories, having been too keen/well held last time.	7802-P2	Taylor Fisher J Tickle	9	71.7kg	19 18/1
10th	11	—	Son Of Tyran (G) Runner-up in Irish point/close third on bumper debut but has shown nothing since. Market can guide on handicap debut/return from 100 days off.	0005-17	Jack Andrews D Skelton	5	68.5kg	34 33/1
2nd	12	—	Prince Rhinegold (G) P Back-to-back creditable efforts over C&D at the end of last year but remains vulnerable to less-exposed types.	025294-	Sean Houlihan Miss L Blackford	8	66.2kg	8 7/1
