Lightly raced 5yo who was runner-up over C&D last month and that form reads well
11	Laughing John Bay J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	J:James Bowen T:Nicky Henderson	162	—	32U-1	108	112	95	75d	—	—	+16	27.8	1.50/1	6/1 14%

4	Kiwi Rush Bay J:Brendan Powell T:Harry Derham	J:Brendan Powell T:Harry Derham	167	t	12-453	113	111	97	21d	—	—	+8	18.8	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Bumper winner who has also shown promise over hurdles; possible improver on handicap debut
8	Escapologist Bay J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:James Owen	J:Sam Twiston-Davies T:James Owen	165	p	24-944	111	113	109	34d	—	—	+9	17.8	2.00/1	8/1 11%

7	Bright Legend Bay J:Harry Cobden T:Faye Bramley	J:Harry Cobden T:Faye Bramley	166	t	646335	112	114	94	27d	—	—	+14	21.1	2.75/1	11/1 8%
0-15 over hurdles but on a reduced mark and the Harry Cobden booking catches the eye
14	Zainy Champ Bay J:Lorcan Williams T:Jeremy Scott	J:Lorcan Williams T:Jeremy Scott	158	t	P-P1PF	104	115	67	25d	—	—	+9	15.1	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Very in and out across his light career but some good form this season and not discounted
15	Hello Fortune Bay J:James Davies T:Nick Gifford	J:James Davies T:Nick Gifford	155	—	3-1294	101	111	88	20d	—	—	+11	16.2	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Unexposed point winner who could prove to be on a realistic mark for his handicap debut
1	Dirty Den Bay J:Paddy Hanlon(5) T:Syd Hosie	J:Paddy Hanlon(5) T:Syd Hosie	168	h	322831	114	113	95	16d	—	—	+27	31.8	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Knocking on the door prior to a comfortable win at Plumpton; solid claims up 6lb
10	Hans Lippershey Bay J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	J:Jack Quinlan T:Ben Case	163	—	-24374	109	108	94	34d	—	—	+14	18.6	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Consistent in short career and pedigree suggests he'll improve for the longer trip
5	The Long Walk Bay J:Richie McLernon T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	J:Richie McLernon T:Jonjo & A J O'Neill	167	—	6-1P3P	113	115	80	34d	—	—	+13	16.7	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Pulled up on two of his last three runs but good third at Market Rasen in between
12	Almuhit Bay J:Kevin Brogan T:Faye Bramley	J:Kevin Brogan T:Faye Bramley	162	t	11-277	108	114	96	18d	—	—	+12	15.3	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Had excuses on last two starts and he has potential off this mark judged on his Flat form
13	Can You Hear Me Bay J:Callum Pritchard(3) T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	J:Callum Pritchard(3) T:Philip Hobbs & Johnson White	160	—	64-F26	106	109	82	77d	—	—	+12	14.8	10.00/1	40/1 2%
