Sporting Life forecast prices — published the night before the race. Top 3 highlighted as market favourites.

Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Jockey	Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
1st	1	—	Scottish King (G) FAV Gained reward for some consistent efforts this season when winning a 3m Market Rasen handicap (heavy) 3 weeks ago. That was a thin race but he might have found another one here.	Philip Armson	R J Armson	10	76.2 kg	3 2/1
3rd	2	—	Gata Ban (M) [P] Fair hurdle winner. Positive start to her chase career when second on Fakenham reappearance (21f, good to soft) on reappearance in October. Hasn't come close to reproducing that in 3 subsequent outings but well treated if a recent wind ope…	R P McLernon	N P Mulholland	9	73.9 kg	4.20 16/5
2nd	3	—	Felton Bellevue (G) [BT] Capitalised on his falling mark when opening account for the season over C&D (soft) last month but merely underlined his inconsistency when a remote third at Huntingdon 8 days ago.	Harry Bannister	B I Case	11	73.5 kg	6.50 11/2
—	4	—	Minella Kaiser (G) [P1] Lightly-raced maiden who placed in his first 2 starts over fences chasing home Felton Bellevue over C&D latterly. Ran no sort of race (went in snatches and carried head awkwardly) back over hurdles here since and cheekpieces are reached fo…	Freddie Gordon	C Gordon	7	71.7 kg	5 4/1
—	5	—	Hilltown (G) C&D winner in spring 2024 but hasn't offered much in 4 starts (2 hurdle, 2 chase) since returning from a long absence, with his latest Fontwell fifth over the smaller obstacles no real step back in the right direction.	Ben Smith	J W Mullins	8	66.2 kg	5.50 9/2

Betting forecast: Scottish King (2/1), Gata Ban (16/5), Minella Kaiser (4/1), Hilltown (9/2), Felton Bellevue (11/2)
