Unsworths Yard EBF Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 13:36 | Winning time: 4m 2.2s

See The Sea³⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 124| CD

9/2

Fairly useful front-running hurdler who scored at Stratford last August. Not really on her game since but should come on for latest outing and has scored over this C&D in the past.

Form: 0/41554-

Ordered Lives³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Liam Harrison⁽⁵⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 122

9/2

Lightly-raced type who is going the right way and had something to spare when completing a double a in a novice hurdle at Taunton last time. More to come now handicapping, so warrants consideration.

Form: 454411-

Laskadine²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 121| D

11/2

Back on song from reduced mark through the winter, winning over 2m at Newcastle/Sedgefield. At least respectable efforts since, and clear of remainder when second at Hexham last time. One to note.

Form: 21142-2

Voice Of Calm²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 113

5/2

Fair Flat winner for Harry Dunlop and has taken well to hurdling, winning at Warwick in April before a respectable third in a novice at Kempton 26 days ago. Remains with potential now handicapping.

Form: 51-3

Timetoroe⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽¹⁰⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 107| D

14/1

Didn't go on from a successful hurdling debut and, although her fourth at Kelso on handicap debut 2 months ago was respectable, she has work to do on her first outing since leaving Archie Watson.

Form: 99/1454-

Calliope^b,t³⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 102| D

3/1

Likeable mare who typically gave her running when second at Perth last month. No room to manoeuvre from this mark and faces competition for the lead.

Form: 343P32-

Non-Runners

Lady Bowes¹⁶

Weight: 10-9| Age: 7

T: James Moffatt J: Charlotte Jones

Forecasts

Voice Of Calm (5/2), Calliope (3/1), Ordered Lives (9/2), See The Sea (9/2), Laskadine (11/2), Lady Bowes (8/1), Timetoroe (14/1)

LASKADINE was clear of the others when a smooth-travelling second at Hexham 21 days ago and, provided she doesn't get involved in the likely early battle up front, could go one better. All of her rivals have a case to be made for them, though the pick is arguably the unexposed Voice of Calm, while Ordered Lives warrants a good mention bidding for the hat-trick.
