Runners

Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Jockey	Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
7th	1	—	Maggies Boy (G) [P] While a reproduction of something akin to his best form would give him a fighting chance, he has a bit to prove following a heavy defeat when returning from a break at Doncaster last month. Cheekpieces refitted.	William Shanahan	J Candlish	7	76.2 kg	29 28/1
4th	2	—	Kastellion (G) FAV Second on sole start in Irish points last spring and duly stepped up on maiden/novice exploits when third of 11 pitched into a handicap a Southwell last time. This stiffer test could help and he's a player off the same mark.	Charlie Hammond	Mrs M Rowley	6	76.2 kg	3.25 9/4
9th	3	—	Greedy Smith (G) In good hands but improvement was not forthcoming on handicap debut at Doncaster in January.	Kielan Woods	J & A O'Neill	6	75.7 kg	17 16/1
5th	4	—	Diamand De Vindecy (G) Fair winning stayer on the Flat and fairly encouraging start over fences when runner-up at Catterick in January. However, he refused next time and is not particularly appealing now returned to hurdles (0-9 in this sphere).	Toby McCain-Mitchell	R Bevis	7	72.1 kg	11 10/1
2nd	5	—	An Buachaill Rua (G) Point winner who found some improvement when opening his hurdles account at the seventh attempt at Ludlow (21f, good to soft) last time. 6 lb rise fair and this stiffer test should be in his favour.	Harry Atkins	Sheila Lewis	6	71.7 kg	4.33 10/3
3rd	6	—	Mooserwirt (G) [T1] Successful between the flags last February and handicap debut fourth of 15 at Newcastle last time was a step in the right direction. Wouldn't be without each-way hope if able to build on that now upped in trip and equipped with a first-tim…	Toby Wynne	O Greenall & J Guerriero	6	71.7 kg	4.50 7/2
10th	7	—	Dublin City (G) Placed on last of 3 starts in points but very little to shout about in a trio of maiden hurdles.	Rex Dingle	J S Smith	6	70.3 kg	51 50/1
—	8	—	Junior Des Mottes (G) [B1] Back-to-back winner of handicaps at Fakenham and Plumpton last month and, though turned over at odds on the last twice, he will be a danger to all if responding well to the first-time blinkers.	Harry Reed	Nick Scholfield	7	69.9 kg	5.50 9/2
1st	9	—	Thereyare (G) [H1T1] Runner-up sole start in Irish points and while he hasn't shown that much over hurdles to this point, it would be no surprise to see this 5-y-o take raise his game.	C J Todd	O Greenall & J Guerriero	5	69.4 kg	11 10/1
8th	10	—	Rockvale (G) [H1] Placed on each of his three starts in points but yet to trouble the judge under Rules, finishing well held on chase/handicap debut at Ludlow when last seen in December 2024. Now tried in a hood.	Stan Sheppard	S Allwood	7	68.5 kg	11 10/1
6th	11	—	Jo Arengeot Bey Aa (G) [P] Point winner but he hasn't pulled up many trees since embarking on a career under Rules.	William Maggs	D McCain Jnr	7	65.8 kg	21 20/1

Betting forecast: Kastellion (9/4), An Buachaill Rua (10/3), Mooserwirt (7/2), Junior Des Mottes (9/2), Thereyare (10/1), Diamand De Vindecy (10/1), Rockvale (10/1), Greedy Smith (16/1), Jo Arengeot Bey Aa (20/1), Maggies Boy (28/1), Dublin City (50/1)
