Carpet Gallop Pre-Mixed Surfaces 01785719991 Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 14:46 | Winning time: 5m 17.32s

Chosen Shant^t³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: C J Todd⁽³⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 100

7/2

Remains a maiden but hasn't done a lot wrong in handicaps of late, placed twice over 23f at Worcester. Very likely to be competitive again.

Form: 433832

Raddle And Hum^h¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Miss Becky Smith⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 98| D

33/1

Off the mark n 10-runner handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good, 4/1) in June. Off nearly 5 months after and shaped as though in need of the run at Carlisle, not knocked about.

Form: 9BP-318

Divas Doyen¹²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-8| J: Ryan Mania| T: Miss S E Forster| OR: 97

66/1

Minor promise only in a quarter of starts in Ireland for Declan Queally. Lot more needed to defy this mark for new yard.

Form: 56-88

Well Cliche¹⁵⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: M Todhunter| OR: 90

28/1

Runner-up in point. Never really a threat in a trio of outings within 17 days in May but handicaps clearly much more suitable.

Form: 23-655

Cailin Dearg^t1²⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Craig Nichol| T: R Dobbin| OR: 89

14/1

Point/bumper winner in Ireland. Beaten a long way over hurdles but now goes handicapping back from a break with her yard in good order. Tongue tie on and one to note in the betting.

Form: 1/71543-

Latino Fling¹⁷³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 89

1/1

Third of 9 on handicap debut at Bangor on final start for Stella Barclay in May. Since transferred to a red-hot yard so there may well be a lot more to come.

Form: 2/1933-3

Seapoint^b¹⁵⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Sam Coltherd| T: Miss J E Foster| OR: 85

40/1

Has made the frame on each of her last 3 starts, creditable fourth of 11 at Cartmel when last seen in May. 2 lb lower on return to action.

Form: 6353-34

Misscarlett^p³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 84

12/1

Got off the mark over hurdles in impressive fashion at Uttoxeter in June and excelled herself when runner-up from out of the weights at Hexham a month ago. Same mark here.

Form: 68-4152

Storm Force One¹⁹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Callum Bewley| T: P D Niven| OR: 82

28/1

Improved in cheekpieces when fourth over C&D in November but failed to get near that form to end the campaign. Cheekpieces off for reappearance.

Form: 784067-

Pure Surf^p1⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 80

8/1

No real impact in her qualifying runs but did show some ability in a bumper and she's a potential improver now handicapping in headgear.

Form: 474-9

Lady Vinetta³²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Danny McMenamin| T: G Boanas| OR: 79

16/1

Merely hinted at ability in trio of novice hurdles and low-key start in handicaps to end 2020.

Form: 0/685P0-

On We Go^v¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Alison Clarke⁽⁷⁾| T: Kenny Johnson| OR: 76| D

25/1

Winless since early 2020 but a brace of in-frame efforts of late confirm that she's competitive.

Form: P44834

Midnight Antics^t¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Nathan Moscrop⁽³⁾| T: T Collier| OR: 72

22/1

Runner-up in a bumper for Sue Smith in 2019 but little to write home about since, not achieving a great deal when third at Ayr 10 days ago.

Form: 008P-73

Lady P^p⁷⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽⁷⁾| T: J Coulson| OR: 70

33/1

Big price when third on handicap debut at Uttoxeter in July and no form aside from that.

Form: 5-00430

Forecasts

Latino Fling (1/1), Chosen Shant (7/2), Pure Surf (8/1), Misscarlett (12/1), Cailin Dearg (14/1), Lady Vinetta (16/1), Midnight Antics (22/1), On We Go (25/1), Well Cliche (28/1), Storm Force One (28/1), Raddle And Hum (33/1), Lady P (33/1), Seapoint (40/1), Divas Doyen (66/1)

CAILIN DEARG was talented enough to win an Irish bumper and though she didn't offer much in her qualifying runs, her lowly opening mark certainly reflects that. A much better showing looks on the cards so she gets the vote, though Latino Fling is also of firm interest having transferred to Donald McCain.
