Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Form	Jockey / Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
9th	1	—	Good For You (G) Runner-up on the second of 3 outings over hurdles last season but the form is no better than modest. May do better now sent handicapping, however, and will be straighter for last month's Chepstow ret…	25-596P	C Gethings Mrs J Williams	4	76.2kg	15 14/1
5th	2	—	Washington Singer (G) Best effort yet on second hurdles start when runner-up in maiden at Lingfield in February. Unseated early on at Plumpton on return last month but figures off a handy mark and could be a player here.	U53451-	Freddie Gordon C Gordon	6	76.2kg	8 7/1
12th	3	—	Lion Of The Desert (G) H Hasn't really threatened in a handful of starts over timber and is likely best watched on handicap debut for new yard here. Hood back on.	91-1321	Joe Anderson G Harris	5	75.7kg	41 40/1
10th	4	—	Best Night (M) T Made winning start over hurdles in September but hasn't really built on that since, including when fifth on handicap debut at this course last month.	632/72-	Jack Tudor D Pipe	4	75.3kg	41 40/1
4th	5	—	W B Easy (G) T Fair maiden hurdler for Ross O'Sullivan in Ireland but ran poorly on debut for new yard last month.	8945-04	Sean Houlihan R Stephens	5	74.8kg	67 66/1
1st	6	—	Zainy Champ (G) Lightly-raced maiden under Rules who has failed to complete the last twice. Plenty to prove at present.	P-P18F6	Lorcan Williams J Scott	6	73kg	12 11/1
2nd	7	—	Jack Hoola (G) B Found improvement since fitted with visor, scoring for second time when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, soft) 21 days ago. Remains feasibly treated and must enter calculations. …	121287-	Stan Sheppard T Lacey	5	72.6kg	4 3/1
3rd	8	—	Clear Storm (F) PT Upped her game when winning 9-runner handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, good) 18 days ago. 5 lb rise fair and is one for shortlist.	2-23F21	Bradley Harris N P Mulholland	4	72.6kg	7.50 13/2
7th	9	—	Broomfield Gale (M) Has her quirks, but resumed from a break/wind op an improved performer earlier this year, opening her account at Stratford (22f) in May before placing at Worcester and Fontwell. Can make presence fel…	R-12371	Robbie David Daisy Hitchins	7	70.3kg	17 16/1
11th	10	—	Reel Orange (M) T Didn't prove easy to catch right last term and shaped as if amiss on return at Worcester in October. Tongue strap on first time.	0241-21	James Davies C J Down	6	69.9kg	34 33/1
6th	11	—	Chedington's Guest (G) FAV TP Aided by first-time cheekpieces when good second of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (21.6f, soft) 12 days ago. Mark remains unchanged and holds solid claims.	67-7526	R T Dunne Kieran Burke	6	68.9kg	2.88 15/8
8th	12	—	L'inoubliable (M) No promise in 3 starts last term and remains to be seen if switch to handicapping brings about improvement this term.	P79-85	James Best K Bishop	4	65.8kg	151 150/1
—	13	—	Saucats (G) Pulled Up T Still looking for first sucess but returned to form when good third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, good) 15 days ago. Back up in trip. Each-way claims.	4-25512	Bryan Carver J Tickle	4	64.4kg	19 18/1
—	14	—	Three Zambezi's (G) Pulled Up Placed in Irish points but struggled under Rules and no signs of improvement on return at Chepstow last month.	9F3-0P4	Brendan Powell Christian Williams	5	64.4kg	12 11/1
