Virgin Bet Mares' Novices' Hurdle (Listed) (GBB Race)

Off time: 14:20 | Winning time: 6m 3.1s

Airgead Suas⁸¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds| OR: 120| BF| D

7/1

Pair of handicap wins at up to 25f on good to soft in November. Winning came to an end at Catterick in December but she still preformed with credit in third and holds each-way claims here.

Form: 4-34113

Alpha Carinae¹⁰⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: R Johnson| T: O Murphy| OR: 125| D

13/2

Winning start over hurdles at Perth. Better form when second at Market Rasen next time and given a break since a disappointing run with a tongue tie fitted (off now) at Warwick in November.

Form: 11-124

Break The Rules^p¹¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: J M Quinlan| T: Martin Smith| OR: 105

150/1

Fair Flat winner who opened account over hurdles in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell. Disappointed in couple of handicap hurdles in the autumn, though, and also well beaten on AW Flat in November.

Form: 30-1376

Dragon Bones⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: R T Dunne| T: Ian Williams

40/1

Sprung a 50/1 surprise on Worcester bumper debut in October 2019. Not seen again until 13 lengths fourth in Market Rasen listed bumper in January. Much longer trip now hurdling.

Form: 1-4

Global Harmony¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Lorcan Williams| T: D Skelton| OR: 116

25/1

Confirmed previous promise when off the mark over hurdles in 21f novice at Wincanton in December but well below best when remote second/fourth since. Even return to best may not suffice.

Form: 2-33124

Go Millie Go¹⁰⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 117

7/2

Placed 3 times prior to coming good at Stratford in October. Followed up at Exeter (23f, heavy) in November. Kept fresh for this since. Respected for yard among winners last month.

Form: 523-211

Phillapa Sue¹⁴⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| BF

20/1

Fair form when placed in 4 bumpers for John Kiely in Ireland, including second of 17 at Punchestown in October. Rather pitched in at the deep end on hurdle/stable debut and watching brief advised.

Form: 33-22

Rayna's World¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Dowson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 128

11/2

Third in Dawn Run at Cheltenham Festival last March and had little difficulty landing short odds back hurdling at Hexham in October. Mostly good efforts in defeat since but may find couple too strong.

Form: 3-12264

Wynn House⁸⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR: 124

6/4

Fairly useful bumper winner who landed mares' novices on first 2 hurdle starts in the autumn and ran well when stepped up to 3m in Cheltenham Grade 2 in December. Leading claims back against own sex.

Form: 1/22-114

Forecasts

Wynn House (6/4), Go Millie Go (7/2), Rayna's World (11/2), Alpha Carinae (13/2), Airgead Suas (7/1), Phillapa Sue (20/1), Global Harmony (25/1), Dragon Bones (40/1), Break The Rules (150/1)

WYNN HOUSE ran well against the boys in a Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham in December and can resume winning ways back in mares' company. Stuart Edmonds' pair Go Millie Go and Airgead Suas can give her most to think about.
