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
—	1	—	Blue Universe (G) Fair maiden hurdler who finished placed in handicap/maiden company at Worcester in September. Probably best to overlook latest effort (always on the back foot after almost coming down at the first flight) and should give a good account her…	Ned Fox	M J Attwater	5	76.2 kg	7 6/1
—	2	—	Albie Littlewood (G) Has failed to trouble the judge in 3 starts in this sphere at around 2m, but he's in good hands and better can be expected now moving up in trip for this handicap debut.	Tristan Durrell	D Skelton	6	73.9 kg	4.50 7/2
2nd	3	—	Fox Cottage (G) Hinted at ability on sole outing in bumpers, but it's all been pretty low-key over hurdles so far and a chunk of improvement will be needed if he's to get competitive now handicapping.	Daniel Sansom	J W Mullins	5	72.6 kg	6.50 11/2
3rd	4	—	Troop Ship (G) Little impact in 3 qualifying runs and while it's by no means beyond the realms of possibility that he'll fare better now pitched into a handicap, others make more appeal all the same.	Shane Quinlan	Mrs M Rowley	7	71.2 kg	3.25 9/4
1st	5	—	Getaway With You (G) FAV [PT] Finally off the mark in a race that fell apart at Lingfield (19.5f, good) last week, pulling away from his rivals approaching the second-last and never in any danger thereafter. Respected under a penalty, but his strike rate (1-27 overall)…	Nick Slatter	D Killahena & G McPherson	7	67.6 kg	1.67 4/6
