2nd	2	—	Gentleman Bill (G) P Bumper/dual 2m hurdles winner but he ended last season well below par in this sphere after a try over fences. Usual cheekpieces go back on for his reappearance and needs to take a big step forward.	53F854-	Toby Wynne O Greenall & J Guerriero	8	76.2kg	19 18/1

10th	8	—	Eustace Grenier (G) Showed promise when in the frame in a trio of bumpers (strong form) and since switched to hurdles, finding the test too sharp when fifth of 12 in novice hurdle at Worcester (2m, good to soft) 23 days…	4343-45	S Bowen O Murphy	5	73.5kg	7 6/1
9th	9	—	Diamond Koda (G) P Consistent sort who deservedly opened his account in 19f handicap at Doncaster in February. Not at his best when third of 6 in novice hurdle at Newcastle (2½m, good) in April but the sort to bounce b…	2/45153-	Tom Broughton N Kent	7	73.5kg	12 11/1
12th	10	—	At Mangan Bridge (G) T Much improved after a breathing operation and successful (over 2½m) maiden hurdle at Southwell and 3-runner handicap at Fakenham 12 months ago. Up 5 lb and needs to hit the ground running on his come…	54/3511-	Murray Dodd S Edmunds	8	73kg	13 12/1

—	12	—	Circuit Breaker (G) P Lost his form over hurdles following promising debut success at Kempton (21f) in October 2024. However largely in good form back on the Flat since so needs considering off a reduced mark with stable …	1358/6-	Non Runner J & A O'Neill	6	72.6kg	15 14/1
7th	13	—	Can You Hear Me (G) H Right back on track in a first-time hood (retained) when second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19f, good) 7 months ago. Can't be dismissed in his bid for a maiden success on his return.	4/F2692-	Sean Houlihan P Hobbs & J White	5	72.1kg	34 33/1
13th	14	—	Pike Road (G) P Course winner. Yet to score this season but ridden less positively than usual when last of 5 in handicap hurdle here (23f, good) 26 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back.	427785	James Best M Keighley	7	72.1kg	23 22/1
