—	1	—	Has Troke (G) Signed off last season on a winning note off 2 lb lower mark at Lingfield and positive-enough start to present campaign when third of 9 at the same course in December (23f). Better than bare facts bo…	PP1-357	Bryan Carver A M Hales	9	76.2kg	6 5/1
1st	2	—	West Orchard (G) FAV P Solid record over fences, winning 4 times and placed on 4 occasions from 15 starts in that sphere. Runner-up on last hurdles start at Wincanton in December and now looks more reliable than he used to…	31-2523	Freddie Gingell J Tizzard	9	74.4kg	3.75 11/4
2nd	3	—	Fravanco (G) All-weather winner who has raced around 2m over hurdles so far. This just his second handicap start in this sphere but stamina an unknown upped markedly in distance.	96/5752-	M Goldstein M Madgwick	7	71.7kg	13 12/1
3rd	4	—	Approaching Storm (M) Little to get excited about in 5 runs under Rules but handicaps are more suitable and she's bred to stay well.	90045	Tabitha Worsley N J Gifford	5	64.4kg	12 11/1
6th	5	—	Amalfi Skyline (G) H Winning chaser for previous yard but too free returning from nearly 2 years off at Plumpton in February and probably didn't achieve a great deal when last of 5 in handicap hurdle at this course (2¾m,…	53P/2-F5	Isabelle Ryder F Brennan	7	64.4kg	4 3/1
8th	6	—	Counteract (G) Dual winning chaser for Suzy Smith but hard to catch right over both sets of obstacles and has been off over 2 years. Has moved to Chris Gordon late in his career but perhaps worth a second look.	63P7P/8-	Tom Cannon C Gordon	11	64.4kg	5.50 9/2
4th	7	—	Shesupincourt (M) PT Inconsistent sort who often races from out of the handicap and isn't really one to be interested in.	83P574-	Paddy Hanlon R Potter	9	64.4kg	5.50 9/2
7th	8	—	Miss Jaffa Cake (M) Very little form of note to her name.	9U5P6P	Harry Reed P Gundry	6	64.4kg	51 50/1
5th	9	—	Simon The Seagull (G) P Maiden who races from 6 lb out of the handicap and isn't one to rely on. Significantly up in trip in a change of headgear.	3P/4P65-	Freddie Mitchell Mrs D Grissell	7	64.4kg	10 9/1
