Racing UK Club Day Here Today Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 14:25 | Winning time: 6m 13.10s

Our Reward^v¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: J M Quinlan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 116| BF

5/1

Better handicapped over fences but switches to hurdles having run away with a modest Fakenham contest to earn a first win in two years. Suited to a sound surface and no problem with this kind of trip.

Form: 257413

One Night In Milan¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: B S Hughes| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 115

10/3

Had landed a couple of handicaps prior to a fall at Kelso when travelling well at the time. This trip should hold no fears as a half-brother to Gold Cup winner Native River.

Form: 5-3411F

Katy Royal⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Joe Colliver| T: C W Fairhurst| OR: 112

15/2

Consistent mare who is a thorough stayer. Unlucky on penultimate start when saddle slipped and was making her effort when falling last time.

Form: 43-123F

Scented Lily³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Sean Quinlan| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 112

3/1

Beat a modest lot last time in a race where the favourite ran as tough something was amiss. Doubtful the form was worth the 5lb rise in the weights but she proved she stays.

Form: 52-F631

Boruma^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Henry Brooke| T: James Moffatt| OR: 110

9/1

Triple winner with last two victories coming at his local Cartmel track. On a good mark if building on a more encouraging run last time.

Form: U-436P5

Mah Mate Bob¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Craig Nichol| T: G Bewley| OR: 104

28/1

Half-brother to a 3m winning hurdler so every chance he can improve for the step up in trip on handicap debut. Shaped better than his finishing position suggests on last month's return from a year off, but opening mark looks testing.

Form: 769-5

Simply Lucky^t²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: Ross Turner⁽⁷⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 90

40/1

Improved for Dan Skelton to land two similar races this summer. Sold cheaply to current trainer in September and fell at Wetherby when pushed along.

Form: 41355F

Lawtop Legend¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Jonathon Bewley⁽³⁾| T: G Bewley| OR: 90

7/2

Positively ridden to land some good bets last week. Not certain to follow up in better company off a higher mark.

Form: 0-28421

Shaiyzar^p¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: D Thompson| OR: 85

50/1

Record of 2-59 and has been poor over both types of obstacles in recent starts. Has plenty to do from out of the weights.

Form: 526535

Forecasts

Scented Lily (3/1), One Night In Milan (10/3), Lawtop Legend (7/2), Our Reward (5/1), Katy Royal (15/2), Boruma (9/1), Mah Mate Bob (28/1), Simply Lucky (40/1), Shaiyzar (50/1)

ONE NIGHT IN MILAN has won a couple of handicaps and may have added a third last time when cruising before capsizing at Kelso. He is bred to appreciate this kind of trip and has most to fear from local runner Katy Royal who relishes a stamina test and will give her usual honest account. Lawtop Legend faces a sterner test than last week and Scented Lily is penalised for winning a poor race. Topweight Our Reward jumps and stays well but faces a stiff task in conceding weight and Boruma may be a bigger threat.
