5th	10	—	Shantou Show (G) PT Both wins under Rules in hunter chases and his losing run is mounting up. One of better recent efforts when third at Cartmel (25f) in June, but not in the same form in 2 subsequent outings. Has been …	P-73P55	Erin Dunseath N C Kelly	10	68.5kg	21 20/1

8th	13	—	Following Orders (G) B Fair form over hurdles at best but hasn't matched that level in 4 starts over fences this season, weakening in third when falling at the last in handicap at Wexford (19f) in August. Ran poorly revert…	09PF08	Shane O'Callaghan P J Rothwell	6	67.1kg	26 25/1
4th	14	—	Schiehallion (G) V Maiden hurdler who didn't offer much in 2 starts over fences this summer, fifth of 6 in maiden over this C&D on the first occasion. Fared no better back hurdling when down the field in handicap at Do…	2-P5P04	Alix Balfe D A McLoughlin	9	65.8kg	13 12/1
