12l second on stable debut when soft ground perhaps wasn't ideal; could improve upon that
2	Walking On A Dream Bay J:Jack Power(5) T:Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	J:Jack Power(5) T:Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore	170	—	21P-32	112	121	107	36d	—	—	+3	20.5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Clear second behind a highly progressive winner at Hexham on second chase start

Below par over hurdles on last 2 runs but this point winner may benefit from going chasing
3	Great Notions Bay J:Jack Andrews(3) T:Fiona Needham	J:Jack Andrews(3) T:Fiona Needham	170	p	-13235	112	121	107	17d	—	—	+17	25.4	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Form dipped at Kelso 17 days ago but creditable runs in November in first two handicaps
5	Sunset Hill Grey J:Conor Rabbitt(3) T:Susan Corbett	J:Conor Rabbitt(3) T:Susan Corbett	169	—	0-4355	111	118	100	20d	—	—	+9	17.6	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Running respectably over fences at end of last year and not ruled out back down in grade
8	Court At Slip Bay J:Mr William Easterby(5) T:Tim Easterby	J:Mr William Easterby(5) T:Tim Easterby	158	b	54-523	100	115	99	17d	—	—	+7	14.6	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Inconsistent last year but Newcastle form-figures read 14121; could have a part to play
10	Swallows Song Bay J:Sean Quinlan T:Iain Jardine	J:Sean Quinlan T:Iain Jardine	150	b	74-744	92	121	97	24d	—	—	+4	13.2	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Musselburgh fourth can be upgraded; could build on that run now going back left-handed
12	Uptown Harry b/br J:Charlie Maggs(5) T:Jane Walton	J:Charlie Maggs(5) T:Jane Walton	142	v	P-5462	84	119	100	38d	0W/1P 1 run	0W/1P 1 run	+5	9.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
12yo; best finish for some time when going close at Musselburgh; runs off 7lb higher here
7	Mighty Fleur Bay J:James Bowen T:Mickey Bowen	J:James Bowen T:Mickey Bowen	164	h	3-2225	106	-	-	27d	—	—	+12	17.8	4.50/1	18/1 5%
In a competitive race for chase debut but her two half-siblings both improved for fences
4	Chemical Warfare Bay J:Conor O'Farrell T:David Pipe	J:Conor O'Farrell T:David Pipe	170	t	1-66P0	112	116	51	58d	—	—	+20	23.6	6.25/1	25/1 4%
A return to form is needed but he's well treated and his southern trainer does well here
6	Shadows In The Sky Brown J:Alex Chadwick(3) T:James Owen	J:Alex Chadwick(3) T:James Owen	166	p	333P23	108	117	78	25d	—	—	+19	22.6	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Mixed form this season but Newmarket yard is 3-6 here; capable of a big run
NR	Donna's Double Bay J:TBC T:Adam Nicol	J: T:Adam Nicol	170	—	55/3P/	112	-	-	768d	—	—	—	15.5	—	—
