Point form reads well and he showed his true colours in winning easily at Newcastle
1	I'm A Lumberjack Bay J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	J:Tom Cannon T:Alan King	162	—	39-21F	122	126	110	39d	—	—	+7	22.4	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Fell last time but could return to patient tactics and he retains potential

Didn't beat a lot in his point but did so by an easy 16l at odds-on; bought for £130,000
4	Royal Rambler Bay J:Jonathan Burke T:Emma Lavelle	J:Jonathan Burke T:Emma Lavelle	162	—	361	116	119	101	34d	—	—	+18	32	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Strong when it mattered to win at Chepstow; still looks raw and has plenty more to offer
3	Lieutenant Mayne Bay J:Ben Harvey T:John C McConnell	J:Ben Harvey T:John C McConnell	162	—	116-16	-	128	73	104d	—	—	-8	3.1	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Ran no race when odds-on last time but he's a lot better than that and won three times
6	Akimos Grey J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nicky Henderson	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:Nicky Henderson	156	—	5	-	115	92	77d	—	—	-6	2.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Weak 11-1 chance at Newbury and he was beaten about 20l
7	Choice Runner Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	156	—	55	-	-	-	36d	—	—	-3	1.1	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Beaten 12l and 13l in his two bumpers and faces no easy introduction to hurdling
9	Swift Jet Bay J:Finn Lambert(3) T:Richard Phillips	J:Finn Lambert(3) T:Richard Phillips	156	—	49-53	-	117	82	24d	—	—	-2	0.7	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Others in here have superior form but they are penalised; could go well
8	Maillot Vert Bay J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Sophie Leech	J:Jack Hogan(3) T:Sophie Leech	156	—	2333-	-	-	-	481d	—	—	+6	8.7	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Has ability but has been on the sidelines for a lengthy period and looks best watched
NR	The Bluesman Bay J:TBC T:Paul Nicholls	J: T:Paul Nicholls	162	—	331-1	-	118	99	113d	—	—	—	10	—	—
Bumper/maiden winner; has to improve again but that's feasible
