mintbet.com Novices' Selling Hurdle

Off time: 15:56 | Winning time: 3m 55.2s

Robin Des Mana^t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: R Johnson| T: G Elliott| OR: 126| D

1/4

A repetition of his winning effort at Worcester last time out is more than likely to prove god enough to land this selling hurdle. This Irish raider is the clear pick on official figures and looks likely to follow up.

Form: 22PPP-1

All The Colours¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss K Lyons⁽⁷⁾| T: P York

250/1

Beaten a total of just two horses in four career starts to date l even at this lowly level looks to have a mountain to climb on all known form.

Form: 78PP-U9

Jonagold^p,t²⁴⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 105

9/1

Won 2m4f Bangor handicap chase three starts ago and fell early on last time out over 3m at Ffos Ls. Drops back a mile and switches to timber but looks one of the few dangers to the anticipated favourite.

Form: 45315F-

Luca Brazi^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Colm McCormack⁽³⁾| T: A Sadik| OR: 62

250/1

Failed to compete in four of his last five starts and beaten out of sight when he did struggle over the finishing line. Looks completely outclassed.

Form: 6PU-P5P

Mutawaasel²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 103

6/1

Drops in grade and has prospects judged on the best of his efforts in novice hurdles and bumpers last term. Good yard having few summer runners so certainly worth a market check at very least.

Form: 5/3057-4

Torrent Des Mottes¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: T Scudamore| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 109

11/1

Second in two Irish bumpers when trained by Willie Mullins but didn't race again for the great trainer and joined current yard a year later. Pulled up twice prior to third of five at Uttoxeter last time out.

Form: 2/2P-P3

Dyna Might^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: Ollie Pears

40/1

Two wins at modest level on Flat in 1m4f handicaps and hasn't looked a natural so far over timber. This is easier though so a bold show is not out of the question.

Form: 58

Forecasts

Robin Des Mana (1/4), Mutawaasel (6/1), Jonagold (9/1), Torrent Des Mottes (11/1), Dyna Might (40/1), Luca Brazi (250/1), All The Colours (250/1)

ROBIN DES MANA won a much better race than this at Worcester last time out and bar a fall looks very much the one to have on your side. Jonagold drops back in distance and may make a race of it, while if there is to be a surprise then Mutawaasel may be the one to provide it, although he needs to show improved form. Torrent Des Mottes and Dyna Might are not ruled out in the expected battle for a place.
