TRM Kurasyn Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 15:29 | Winning time: 4m 56.10s

Hang In There^h1²⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 141

6/1

Cheltenham Grade 2 winner who ran poorly in the Tolworth but was in the process of running better when falling 2 out at Huntingdon. Goes handicapping in a first-time hood now and worth considering.

Form: 2/U115F-

Up The Straight²⁰³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: James Davies| T: R Rowe| OR: 135| D

6/1

Had a good first season over hurdles winning novices at Lingfield and Kempton at up to 21f and should be capable of making his mark in handicaps this term.

Form: 42/1731-

Collooney^t²¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: O Murphy| OR: 129

9/2

Bumper/novice hurdle winner who shaped well in a brace of Wincanton handicaps last season, finishing with running left when second final start. Remains with potential.

Form: 2123/62-

Hijack²⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 128

5/2

Only fifth in bumper but proved a different proposition when winning pair of 2m Ludlow novice hurdles. Let down by jumping when only third of 4 at Market Rasen final start. Makes handicap bow.

Form: 5113-

Harefield⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 128| C

14/1

Course winner 12 months ago but needs to leave behind a disappointing reappearance if he's to have a say.

Form: PF/15P-6

Miss Tynte^t²⁸¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: David Noonan| T: D Pipe| OR: 121WS

25/1

Resumed winning ways in straightforward fashion at Plumpton in December, but again failed to see her race out in a similar event at Kempton later that month. Has had a wind operation ahead of return.

Form: 154417-

Jacamar⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: P J Brennan| T: M F Harris| OR: 119| D

11/4

Scored twice in 2019 and in process of running good race on return when forced out after the third last at Newton Abbot. Well held over C&D next time but has been dropped 2 lb.

Form: 3547-R5

COLLOONEY shaped well in a brace of Wincanton handicaps last season and very likely has a bigger performance in the locker, so he's fancied to make a winning return. Up The Straight should be capable of making his mark in handicaps this term, while similar comments apply to Hang In There, who has kept good company to date.
