6th	1	—	Primoz (G) T Barely came out of second gear when beating the re-opposing Escapeandevade in a match at Kelso in February, which was his second success over fences. Solid second back at Kelso in September, but has …	235631	D R Fox L Russell & M Scudamore	7	76.2kg	17 16/1
1st	2	—	Escapeandevade (G) FAV P Generally below par for James Ewart last season, but his mark eased as a result and has found just one too good both starts for new yard, latterly coming home a clear second in a C&D handicap. That f…	2212P2	Paul O'Brien Harry Derham	9	75.7kg	2.25 5/4
7th	3	—	Cabhfuilfungi (G) T Fair hurdles winner who found improvement sent chasing last term, confirming previous promise when landing the odds in a Southwell handicap on New Year's Day. Wasn't disgraced when fifth on return at…	122-572	C O'Farrell Kerry Lee	9	74.8kg	7 6/1
8th	4	—	Netywell (G) The first-leg of his hat-trick during 2023/24 campaign was in this very race and back on-song following a string of below-par efforts when runner-up at Kelso in March. However, he hasn't reproduced t…	P-38F84	P W Wadge L Russell & M Scudamore	8	73.9kg	21 20/1
3rd	5	—	Pony Soprano (G) Didn't go on as expected following hurdles debut win at Exeter last term, but there were positives to take from his first run over fences at Worcester. Not so good back at Exeter since, but if able t…	533-122	Tristan Durrell D Skelton	6	73.5kg	7.50 13/2
2nd	6	—	Sunnyvilla (G) A three-time winner in Ireland who advanced his form when making a winning start for Nicky Richards over C&D (heavy) last December. Almost 20 lengths adrift of second-placed Escapeandevade when fourt…	12-4214	Danny McMenamin N G Richards	10	72.6kg	6.50 11/2
5th	7	—	Master Breffni (G) Improved when bagging back-to-back small-field handicap chases in February. Early faller in his hat-trick bid the following month, but delivered an assured enough round of jumping when third on retur…	211F-35	B S Hughes Micky Hammond	7	71.7kg	17 16/1
4th	8	—	My Noble Lord (G) T Four-time Flat winner for Michael Bell in 2024 and successful start over hurdles for this yard in a juvenile race at Chepstow last October. Runner-up on chase debut/return at Wetherby (15.2f, good to…	41561-8	Craig Nichol O Greenall & J Guerriero	4	69.4kg	8 7/1
