Tejays Horseboxes - Bespoke, Custom Built Horseboxes Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Off time: 12:10 | Winning time: 5m 21.61s

Get Rich Die Plyin^t¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: K Brogan⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott

4/5

Winning hurdle debut at Punchestown (3m) last month and ran to a similarly fairly useful level when third at Cork (3m) 18 days ago. Drop back in trip a slight concern but surely more to come.

Form: 22-13

Here Comes Johny²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr James King⁽⁵⁾| T: O Murphy

11/8

Point winner who was second in a Market Rasen bumper in September before looking potentially useful when quickening clear in good style in 2½m Fakenham maiden hurdle since.

Form: P/71-21

Breaking The Ice^t1¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonathon Bewley⁽³⁾| T: G Bewley

300/1

Maiden pointer who has offered no encouragement in 2 runs over hurdles. Tongue tie added.

Form: 2P/60-P

Broadstruther³³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: C O'Farrell| T: R Dobbin

66/1

Only midfield in a bumper here last December but returns with his yard in form so it'll be interesting to see whether there's any strength behind him in the betting.

Form: 7-

Calypso Storm^t¹¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: D R Fox| T: Sean Conway| OR: 90

300/1

No show in 2 outings over hurdles since returning from long absence.

Form: 356/P7

Conceal³⁰⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: B Pauling

11/1

Ran in 2 bumpers last winter, travelling well for a long way when 14 lengths fourth here latterly. Up in trip for hurdle debut. Has potential.

Form: 83-

Deer Hunter²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Henry Brooke| T: H Whittington

14/1

Modest form in two bumpers last term and ran to a similar level when fourth on 2m Wincanton hurdle debut 3 weeks ago. Longer trip now should help. Open to progress.

Form: 75-4

Farsideofthemoon¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Billy Garritty⁽⁵⁾| T: Micky Hammond

250/1

Modest form in bumpers and well beaten both runs over hurdles. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 407-8

Liar's Dice²⁶¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: Justin Landy| OR: 107

40/1

Fair form for Liz Doyle in 2018/19 and runner-up twice in British points last winter. Did run to only a modest level when midfield in Musselburgh novice hurdle on Rules return in February, though.

Form: 895/227-

Alright Marlene^t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Lucy Alexander| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward

33/1

Unconvincing record in points and beaten a fair way in 2 novice hurdles this autumn.

Form: 3/343-37

Lady Vinetta²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Quinlan| T: G Boanas

66/1

Midfield in pair of 2m Hexham novice hurdles last month and unlikely to be of any real interest until handicapping.

Form: 60-68

Penny Hill⁷⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Danny McMenamin⁽³⁾| T: M E Sowersby

300/1

50/1, well held in course bumper in August. Likely outsider now hurdling.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Get Rich Die Plyin (4/5), Here Comes Johny (11/8), Conceal (11/1), Deer Hunter (14/1), Alright Marlene (33/1), Liar's Dice (40/1), Lady Vinetta (66/1), Broadstruther (66/1), Farsideofthemoon (250/1), Calypso Storm (300/1), Breaking The Ice (300/1), Penny Hill (300/1)

A good chance this will develop into a straight fight between HERE COMES JOHNY and Get Rich Die Plyin. Both are open to improvement but the drop back in trip is a slight worry for the latter so Here Comes Johny is preferred after quickening clear in good style over 2½m at Fakenham last month.
