1st	1	—	Jamesieconn (G) FAV T Thriving 7-y-o gelding that completed a hat-trick of handicap chase wins at Carlisle (by 2 lengths from Tory Hill, jumping accurately) earlier this month. Up another 5 lb and return to a left-handed …	3-24111	Danny McMenamin N G Richards	7	76.2kg	2.75 7/4
5th	2	—	I See The Sea (G) B Notched second success over fences when opening account for present yard at Catterick in November. Excellent second at same course in January but form has dipped since, adding to what has developed i…	172P37	Ryan Mania C N Kellett	7	74.8kg	17 16/1
2nd	3	—	Streamsforth Lad (G) TP Confirmed return to form when 3 lengths second of 10 to Three Zambezi's in handicap at Bangor last month. Repeat of that effort puts him firmly in the mix, but he's 0-18 now and it remains to be seen…	3UUF22	Alan Doyle G Hanmer	8	74.8kg	5 4/1
3rd	4	—	Redeeming Love (M) T Cost £78,000 after finishing third in an Irish point and showed improved form stepped up in trip on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (conditionals event, 5 lengths third of 7 to Raby Mere) last tim…	37-6673	Jamie Hamilton M Walford	6	74.4kg	8.50 15/2
—	5	—	King Of Cong (G) Pulled Up BT Won over hurdles in Ireland a couple of years back and responded well to the addition of cheekpieces when runner-up in handicap chase here in November. However, he's been well below that form since a…	2430PP-	William Maggs S England	8	70.8kg	12 11/1
8th	6	—	Jet Light (G) P Runner-up on second of 3 starts in Irish points, but went with very little promise over hurdles, including upped in trip on handicap debut last time. Needs to improve markedly for the switch to chasi…	4777P/8-	Charlotte Jones James Moffatt	7	70.3kg	29 28/1
6th	7	—	Dr Shirocco (G) Dual course winner, who posted respectable efforts when twice in frame here earlier this season. That's as good as it's got this season, though, and he has hardly shaped like a winner in waiting tack…	7446-34	C O'Farrell Miss S E Forster	11	68kg	13 12/1
7th	8	—	Gibberwell (G) B Very hard to catch right and having scored over 3m at this course last season, he's typically been more miss than hit since, again racing indolently when pulling up for the third consecutive start ba…	5-F5PPP	Theo Gillard J Coulson	10	67.1kg	29 28/1
4th	9	—	Rightbackatyou (G) Maiden hurdler, who shaped better than on chasing debut when 31 lengths second of 2 finishers to Scottish King in 10-runner novice handicap at this course in March. That still leaves him with plenty …	87FP24-	D R Fox W Coltherd	8	66.7kg	12 11/1
—	10	—	Eveque (G) Veteran who capitalised on a reduced mark when springing a surprise at this course in November. Hasn't been near that level in 4 starts since and finds himself back on the same mark as a result, but …	8-15P9P	Peter Kavanagh Mrs J Walton	12	66.2kg	34 33/1
—	11	—	Joie More (G) Pulled Up T Plugged on to fill the frame twice over fences to end 2025 but he's still a maiden and his latest effort at Newcastle hardly suggested he's ready to break his duck. Has had a breathing operation.	P43P56	Sean Quinlan Mrs J Stephen	8	66.2kg	10 9/1
9th	12	—	Reliance Kid (G) Went close on third start between the flags back in May 2024 and, having had a breathing operation, shaped much better than being pulled up suggests in novice handicap won by Scottish King at this co…	7/990P9-	Charlie Maggs A Wilson	7	66.2kg	34 33/1
—	13	—	Blue Indigo (G) Unseated Rider P In frame twice over hurdles and close second when falling heavily 3 out in novice handicap won by Scottish King at this course on chasing debut, That hadn't been his first mistake, however, and he'll…	P835FU	Edward Austin Gary Rutherford	6	65.8kg	15 14/1
—	14	—	Lewa House (G) VT Poor handicap hurdler/chaser that has been out of sorts since his return in November. Wears first-time visor and tongue strap.	2/5606P-	Bruce Lynn C Bissett	10	64.4kg	21 20/1
—	15	—	Muroor (G) Pulled Up P Best effort this season when nailed close home at this course last May but not in the same form since and this veteran hasn't won a race since November 2020. Races from 7 lb out of the handicap.	526005	James Best Lizzie Quinlan	13	64.4kg	101 100/1
—	16	—	Euchan Falls (G) Pulled Up Dual hurdles winner back in 2023 but he's a long-standing maiden in this sphere and looks up against it once more from well out of the handicap.	PPPP47	Nathan Moscrop R M Smith	9	64.4kg	41 40/1
