6th	2	—	Hara Kiri (G) FAV Won 3 hurdle races in 2024 before a break. Finished creditably when 3rd at Wetherby (11/4) 24 days ago, moving well but effort faded after poor jump at last hurdle. Seems likely to give another good …	11/12-36	S Bowen O Murphy	8	75.7kg	2.38 11/8
—	3	—	Railway Bell (M) T Unbeaten in two starts under Rules, winning a bumper and a C&D maiden hurdle in 2024. Off since but yard's runner rarely lack for fitness and looks on a fair-looking mark on handicap debut.	2/11-412	J J Burke F O'Brien	6	75.7kg	3.50 5/2
