Qatar Airways William Eborall Novices' Hurdle

Off time: 14:10 | Winning time: 4m 41.90s

Serosevsky^t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: N P Madden| T: H Fry| D

2/1

Some fair form in bumpers but he appeared suited by the longer trip over hurdles on his second start in that sphere at Exeter. Still looks relatively unexposed over hurdles but does have to carry a penalty here.

Form: 2/1555-1

Dead Right³⁹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Aidan Coleman| T: N P Mulholland

4/9

Not seen for a while but of interest based on his beating of Grade 1 winning hurdler Next Destination in a Punchestown bumper. Had shown plenty on his previous start over hurdles (ran green) at Newbury and remains a useful prospect.

Form: 281/

March Is On¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill

25/1

Winner in an Irish point-to-point (second attempt in that sphere) but has made little impact in two novice hurdles. Still needed the experience over C&D last time when beaten 34L and needs this run for a handicap mark.

Form: 515-8

Non-Runners

Forecasts

Dead Right (4/9), Serosevsky (2/1), Commodore Barry (12/1), March Is On (25/1)

Despite the small field the race still has plenty of interest with SEROSEVSKY looking to follow up his Exeter win under a penalty with race fitness giving him the edge over Dead Right whose Punchestown bumper win reads well. Commodore Barry appears to be the best of the other two who take part here although he may need further in time.
