#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
7	Jet Powered Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	156	—	1/15-	131	144	110	336d	—	—	+10	34.5	0.69/1	11/4 27%
Looked a smart prospect on hurdling debut; folded tamely next time; still has potential
9	Irish Hill Grey J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	154	—	1100-4	129	147	123	19d	—	—	+10	23.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Satisfactory reappearance when fourth of seven at Kempton; becoming well handicapped again
10	Uncle Bert Bay J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nigel Twiston-Davies	150	—	1P-14F	125	144	126	15d	—	—	+9	22.8	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Easy winner at Perth and things have not gone his way since; could still be unexposed
2	North Lodge Bay J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	167	—	1123/	142	143	-	602d	—	—	+30	40.6	1.50/1	7 14%
Very lightly raced 6yo, last seen finishing third in Aintree Grade 1 novice in April 2022
11	Off To A Flyer Bay J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	J:Brendan Powell T:Joe Tizzard	145	—	32P1-0	120	142	125	15d	—	—	+11	19.9	2.25/1	10 10%
Could finish only in midfield at Cheltenham on reappearance and is on a retrieval mission
1	Sebastopol Bay J:Cameron Iles(7) T:Tom Lacey	J:Cameron Iles(7) T:Tom Lacey	168	tv	P1F-13	143	148	129	73d	—	—	+19	25	3.25/1	14 7%
Mixes hurdling and chasing; winner in September; drying ground would suit; each-way claims
3	Anyharminasking Bay J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo O'Neill	J:Jonjo O'Neill Jr T:Jonjo O'Neill	161	—	634-29	136	148	122	13d	—	—	+15	23.9	2.75/1	12 8%
Soft ground possibly counted against him last time; this step up to 2m4f could suit
6	Rock My Way Bay J:Freddie Gingell(5) T:Syd Hosie	J:Freddie Gingell(5) T:Syd Hosie	158	p	1P9-05	133	150	120	14d	—	—	+16	22.5	2.75/1	12 8%
Fifth in Cheltenham handicap last time; needs to improve for the fitting of cheekpieces
5	Cobblers Dream Brown J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	159	t	/22P-3	134	147	91	19d	—	—	+20	25.4	3.75/1	16 6%
Failed to fire last season but might have needed recent reappearance; possibilities
8	Get A Tonic Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	155	—	4665-4	130	147	131	25d	—	—	+17	21.2	6.00/1	25 4%
Below par lately; chasing quickly put on hold; well treated on best form but carries risks
NR	Soaring Glory Bay J:Kevin Brogan T:Jonjo O'Neill	J:Kevin Brogan T:Jonjo O'Neill	160	p	P57-35	135	148	111	19d	—	—	—	21.3	—	—
Mostly disappointing since close fifth in 2022 Betfair Hurdle; Jonjo O'Neill Jr jumps ship
