Cazoo Juvenile Hurdle (GBB Race)

Off time: 13:21 | Winning time: 3m 57.5s

Fast Forward^p³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| BF

7/2

Won 2 of last 3 starts on the Flat but failed to meet market expectations just 8 days on from winning at Yarmouth when third on hurdling debut at Market Rasen last month (lost shoe). Could well step forward from that effort today.

Form: 3

Free Chakarte^t⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| D

2/1

Fair on Flat (stays 1¼m) in France for Christophe Ferland, winner of 2 claimers in April and justified strong support on hurdles debut at Hexham last month. Beaten at short prices all 3 starts since but she still makes the most appeal.

Form: 1322

Rolypolymoly¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Lee Edwards| T: A West

5/4

Fair maiden on the Flat up to 1¼m and made an encouraging debut in this sphere when runner-up at Stratford a fortnight ago. The winner that day has scored again since and he's open to improvement with that under his belt.

Form: 2

Boudica Warrior³²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy

22/1

Fair maiden on Flat, stays 1½m. Beaten a fair way on her last couple of starts in France and likely to find a few too strong on hurdling debut.

Pepsiwithacap^p1⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: J J Burke| T: G P Cromwell

18/1

Fair Flat winner who finished well held on her first start in this discipline at Killarney 9 days ago (not always fluent). First-time cheekpieces applied but tough to enthuse over.

Form: 6

Forecasts

Rolypolymoly (5/4), Free Chakarte (2/1), Fast Forward (7/2), Never No Trouble (10/1), Pepsiwithacap (18/1), Boudica Warrior (22/1)

Despite suffering a heavy defeat last time, FREE CHAKARTE has made a promising start in this sphere so David Pipe's charge gets the verdict to get back on the up and add to her Hexham success early last month. Fast Forward had been given only 8 days to recover from his second success on the level when third on hurdling debut last month so he's put forward as the main danger, ahead of Rolypolymoly.
