Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Jockey	Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
—	1	—	Kitzbuhel (G) FAV Smart over hurdles and already looks a better chaser than a hurdler, taking the step up in class in his stride when making all in Kauto Star (Grade 1) at Kempton on Boxing Day, his jumping making it very hard for anything else to get a loo…	Paul Townend	W P Mullins	6	73 kg	1.91 10/11
3rd	2	—	Miami Magic (G) Useful over hurdles last season (runner-up in the Formby) and showed that level at the third attempt over fences this term when winning 5-runner Cheltenham novice on New Year's Day, suited by return to this trip. Significant improvement re…	Charlie Hammond	S Edmunds	7	73 kg	15 14/1
1st	3	—	Sixmilebridge (G) [T] Front runner who looked a smart recruit to chasing when winning Ayr maiden and Cheltenham novice (both 3-runner fields) this season. Well worth a shot at this level but does face serious competition for the lead.	Kielan Woods	F O'Brien	7	73 kg	7 6/1
2nd	4	—	Kala Conti (M) Useful over hurdles and made it 2 from 2 over fences in the manner of a smart chaser in Grade 2 mares novice at Cork 55 days ago, beating the reappearing Kargese by 16 lengths. Sure to make a bold bid for the hat-trick.	Jack Kennedy	G Elliott	6	69.9 kg	3 2/1
