—	1	—	Mythe Bridge (G) Fell Son of Black Sam Bellamy made an encouraging return from 7 months off when third of 10 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Yard has a good record in this so he's not taken …	322-3F3	Stan Sheppard H D Daly	7	76.2kg	5.50 9/2
—	2	—	Hill Of Tara (G) Pulled Up A fair 3m2f winner over hurdles but he has yet to match that form in this sphere, a well-held fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f, good to soft, 12/1) 32 days ago. Needs to take a step fo…	7/5P6-4P	Charlie Deutsch Miss V Williams	8	74.8kg	5 4/1
—	3	—	Streamsforth Lad (G) Unseated Rider T Arrives in good form without winning over hurdles, third of 7 in handicap at Wetherby (24.1f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Pulled up on his only previous run over fences but still commands respect.	3UUF22	Benjamin Macey G Hanmer	7	73.5kg	7 6/1
—	4	—	Fat Faced Columbo (G) Runner-up in an Irish point and he shaped promisingly when a clear second of 10 in handicap at Exeter (24.2f, good to soft) on his debut over fences 32 days ago. Up 6 lb but winner has gone in again …	243-211	James Best R Mitford-Slade	5	71.7kg	5 4/1
—	5	—	Three Figs (G) Pulled Up P Only modest form shown in a trio of maiden hurdles, fifth of 7 at Hereford (19.7f, good) 24 days ago. Goes up in trip with cheekpieces added for his chasing bow and could still do better.	405	Sean Houlihan P Hobbs & J White	7	70.8kg	41 40/1
1st	6	—	House Of Habsburg (G) FAV Cut little ice over hurdles but took a big step forward when a clear second of 9 in handicap at Warwick (24f, soft) on his debut over fences 8 days ago. Holds leading claims.	405211	S Bowen Christian Williams	5	69.9kg	2.38 11/8
—	7	—	Delgany Deadline (G) Fair maiden hurdler who resumed from 7 months off with a good fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) 44 days ago. Steps back up in trip now starting out over fences and must enter …	432124-	Tristan Durrell D Skelton	5	68kg	9 8/1
—	8	—	Community Rebel (G) Pulled Up Point/hurdles winner who showed fair chasing form without scoring for James Ewart. However, he's yet to offer much for his current yard so others appeal more.	P6UP34	Joshua Thompson Micky Hammond	9	67.6kg	34 33/1
2nd	9	—	Try The Money (G) P Still to score over fences but he is knocking on the door, second of 7 in handicap chase at Ffos Las (23.8f, soft) 30 days ago. Well in the mix once more with cheekpieces added.	P3F2-22	Kielan Woods Henry Oliver	7	65.8kg	7 6/1
—	10	—	Worth The Walk (M) Pulled Up Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who was pulled up in handicap at Ayr (24.1f, heavy) on debut over fences 18 days ago. Hard to warm to.	7/PP22F-	Danny McMenamin Micky Hammond	8	64.9kg	41 40/1
—	11	—	Meranti (G) Pulled Up Poor maiden hurdler/chaser on balance of form. Remote fourth of 11 in handicap chase at Huntingdon (19.9f, soft) 27 days ago and others are much preferred here.	P4/54PP	Finn Lambert Sheila Lewis	7	64.4kg	67 66/1
—	12	—	Miami Jim (G) Pulled Up P Arrives out of sorts, eighth of 11 in handicap chase at Wincanton (26.7f, soft) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces are reached for now.	P/3758P-	Benjamin Poste Mrs R Gasson	7	64.4kg	41 40/1
