Mackie's Summer Days Novices' Hurdle

Off time: 14:00 | Winning time: 5m 7.90s

Mac Tottie^h,t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 120| D

11/8

Tongue-tie and hood combination did the trick when running out a ready winner at Worcester (2m4f, good) last time. Headgear combination retained here and is a player once more.

Form: 222-521

Roo Roo²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Ross Chapman⁽³⁾| T: I Jardine| CD

9/2

Won what looked a pretty weak race last time over C&D. This race is deeper than that but is open to improvement so a player once again under similar conditions.

Form: 5-41

Court Dreaming³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: R D Day⁽³⁾| T: N G Richards

13/2

Shaped with plenty of promise on his hurdling debut over C&D last month when staying on nicely. Slight suspicion that he'll be better over further given time but is a lively player here all the same with improvement probable.

Form: 5-2

Strathy⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Callum Bewley⁽³⁾| T: J S Goldie

50/1

Beaten a very long way in three bumpers so far this year. Needs a major upturn in fortunes to take a hand on hurdles debut and best watched for now.

Form: 70-0

Wor Verge⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: James Corbett⁽⁵⁾| T: S Corbett

20/1

Beaten a long way on hurdles debut before being pulled-up on his latest start at Newcastle. Likelihood is he'll be more suited to handicaps on the back of this run.

Form: 8735P-

Scales Of Justice³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

25/1

Bits of promise on hurdling debut here over 2m last month. Should come on for that and shape like this step up in trip would almost certainly help and better expected at some point.

Form: 8

Champagne To Go²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: Nathan Moscrop⁽⁵⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 107

9/4

Finished close-up in handicap company the last twice, form that gives her pretty strong claims dropping back into novice company here. Conditions absolutely fine and likely to be in the shake-up at least.

Form: PPP2-23

Country Delights³²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: H Burns

100/1

Well beaten in a couple of bumpers before a very underwhelming hurdles debut at Hexham last month when starting at 250/1. Hard to enthuse about her chances on the back of that.

Form: 69-8

Cushy Butterfield³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Finian O'Toole⁽³⁾| T: Mrs S Walton

100/1

Tailed off in her sole bumper and the story was no better when pulled up on hurdling debut at Hexham last month. Impossible to fancy on the back of that.

Form: 0/P

West Coast Lass³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: S Mulqueen⁽³⁾| T: R M Smith

33/1

Little promise in two starts so far over hurdles and it's hard to make a solid case for her here. She does have more scope than some of these to improve though and better expected at some point.

Form: 06-6

Tibbie Tamson⁹⁰

Weight: 10-5| Age: 7

T: W Coltherd J: Sam Coltherd

Forecasts

Mac Tottie (11/8), Champagne To Go (9/4), Roo Roo (9/2), Court Dreaming (13/2), Wor Verge (20/1), Scales Of Justice (25/1), West Coast Lass (33/1), Strathy (50/1), Tibbie Tamson (66/1), Country Delights (100/1), Cushy Butterfield (100/1)

Mac Tottie was finally off the mark in today's headgear combination last time and should go well again. Champagne To Go has gone close in handicap company the last twice and is very much respected. This can go the way of COURT DREAMING who shaped with considerable promise on debut ovver C&D and is taken to go one better with that run under his belt.
