Well held last twice but he still has potential; needs watching in market on stable debut
8	Tees Comp's Clive Chestnut J:Jamie Hamilton T:Gillian Boanas	J:Jamie Hamilton T:Gillian Boanas	150	p	-95344	82	103	88	24d	—	—	-3	14.5	1.38/1	11/2 15%
0-12 over hurdles but a decent effort at Wetherby last month; dangerous
4	Gonnino Chestnut J:Ryan Mania T:Gary Rutherford	J:Ryan Mania T:Gary Rutherford	162	—	604-24	94	101	89	153d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+3	14.1	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Unexposed 6yo and he's open to more progress upped to this trip on his return; interesting
5	Coral Blue Bay J:Callum Bewley T:Daragh Bourke	J:Callum Bewley T:Daragh Bourke	159	t	4267-5	91	102	91	23d	—	—	+2	13.6	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Reappeared with a respectable fifth at Carlisle and has claims if he can build on that
3	Trailblazer Bay J:Charlie Maggs(5) T:Adam Nicol	J:Charlie Maggs(5) T:Adam Nicol	162	tp	2-3438	94	102	86	39d	—	—	+8	17.2	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Generally consistent in handicaps but disappointing last time; bit to prove after that
6	Better Be Definite Bay J:Bruce Lynn T:N W Alexander	J:Bruce Lynn T:N W Alexander	157	—	1/210-	89	99	-	503d	—	—	+13	18.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Both wins have been at around 3m and he has something to prove after 503 days off
7	Cage Rattler Chestnut J:Harry Reed T:Sandy Forster	J:Harry Reed T:Sandy Forster	155	h	34-636	87	102	77	153d	—	—	+6	10.6	4.50/1	18/1 5%
0-8 over hurdles but he has solid record in handicaps and is in the mix after 153 days off
2	Bridge Court Bay J:Theo Gillard T:Sandy Thomson	J:Theo Gillard T:Sandy Thomson	168	t	/43PP-	100	99	72	228d	—	—	+10	13.5	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Lightly raced 6yo but he's been pulled up in both handicaps; something to prove on return
9	Blended Stealth Bay J:Peter Kavanagh T:Lizzie Quinlan	J:Peter Kavanagh T:Lizzie Quinlan	142	p	162596	74	102	80	36d	—	—	+5	8.3	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Just 1-36 over hurdles and he's been tailed off in last three runs
