Each Way Extra At bet365 Handicap Hurdle (Div 1)

Off time: 13:55 | Winning time: 3m 45.14s

Czech Her Out^t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: M Scudamore| OR: 100| D

9/2

Fair handicap hurdler who ran better than on her reappearance when sixth of 10 at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft, 11/2) 15 days ago. Down a further 2 lb so can make her presence felt.

Form: 8435-76

Hats Off To Larry^b1,t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 97

17/2

Fairly useful Flat winner who opened his account in this sphere at Market Rasen last month. Similar form on next 2 starts and should give another good account with first-time blinkers applied.

Form: 904-134

Rock On Tommy¹⁷⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Fergus Gregory⁽³⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 94

22/1

Signs of ability but should come into his own over longer trips than this. Still worth a market check on handicap debut.

Form: 57488-

Bempton Cliffs⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Alan Johns| T: S Allwood| OR: 93

6/1

Front-runner who faded into third in 2m Huntingdon handicap on return in March. Below form on both starts since and hard to see him featuring even with the handicapper dropping him 4 lb.

Form: 659/3P-8

Seaborough¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: D Shaw| OR: 91

6/1

Returned to best, on debut for new yard, when third over C&D and had excuses when well held from same mark at Southwell since, badly hampered 3 out and never on terms. Each-way squeak.

Form: 0655-36

Ragamuffin^t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 89| BF| D

9/2

Got his act together following a wind op last year, winner of heavy-ground handicaps at Ffos Las and Bangor during the winter. Showed benefit of recent run when runner-up last time so should go well.

Form: 1129-42

Global Wonder^p⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: D A Jacob| T: J & S Best| OR: 87| D

14/1

Showed improved form to open his account in this sphere at Plumpton in October. Likely needed run after break at Southwell in April but well held on Flat at Lingfield since. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 99/3519-

Ofcourseiwill³³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽¹⁰⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 85

8/1

Out of sorts for a while but ended a long losing run in a particularly weak contest when winning 5-runner handicap hurdle at Bangor (16.7f, soft, 2/1) 33 days ago. Leading claims up 5 lb.

Form: 7UP8-91

Wisecracker^p,t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Page Fuller| T: B I Case| OR: 80| D

12/1

Back to winning ways in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow last month but unsurprisingly failed to repeat that effort at Southwell next time. Hard to recommend given his profile.

Form: 375-410

Lightning Blue⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: R T Dunne| T: T R Gretton| OR: 80

10/1

Little impact on Flat/all 3 starts over hurdles. Faces an uphill task on handicap debut.

Form: 486-

Sunny Girl²²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: James Davies| T: A Wintle| OR: 70

50/1

Looks very limited judged on what we have seen so far. Easily ignored after 7 months off the track.

Form: 000/699-

Dragon Khan³¹

Weight: 10-4| Age: 12

T: Mrs R Gasson J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Ragamuffin (9/2), Czech Her Out (9/2), Seaborough (6/1), Bempton Cliffs (6/1), Ofcourseiwill (8/1), Hats Off To Larry (17/2), Lightning Blue (10/1), Wisecracker (12/1), Global Wonder (14/1), Dragon Khan (14/1), Rock On Tommy (22/1), Sunny Girl (50/1)

OFCOURSEIWILL was well supported and duly took advantage of a drop in the weights to end a lengthy losing run under this rider at Bangor last month. Admittedly that was a weak contest, but Donald McCain's charge is taken to follow up and defy a 5-lb rise. Czech Her Out is feared most having stepped up on her reappearance at Hexham last time, ahead of Ragamuffin and Seaborough.
