Bangor Point To Point 9th March Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 17:16 | Winning time: 6m 42.21s

Farmer Jimmy¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Tom Midgley| T: M Walford| OR: 98

5/1

Much improved for a switch to handicaps over a longer trip when scoring over 2½m at Wetherby 2 weeks ago. Further step up in trip promises to suit and a 4 lb higher mark doesn't look enough to prevent the follow up.

Form: 3-67581

Superior Glance⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Jack Hogan| T: G Hanmer| OR: 93

18/1

Won her sole start in point bumpers in 2020 but has yet to better modest form over hurdles, including when no match for easy winner at Southwell (24.3f, soft) last week. Improvement needed.

Form: 1/6452

11/8

Got off the mark when landing odds in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) in December, forging clear. Unsuited by emphasis on speed at Market Rasen subsequently, so worth another chance from this mark.

Form: 460-015

Goguenard^p1³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Harry Atkins⁽³⁾| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 81

10/3

Progressed well switched to handicap hurdles last season, again showing a good attitude when scoring for the third time at Stratford (2¾m, heavy) in March. However, there have been very few positives to take from his 3 efforts over fences this term. Reverts to hurdling in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 109-P44

Getaway With You^t1,v⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Joe Anderson| T: Billy Aprahamian| OR: 81

7/2

Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs but again ran creditably when second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, heavy) 46 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Forecasts

Henrysbrotherjack (11/8), Goguenard (10/3), Getaway With You (7/2), Farmer Jimmy (5/1), Pure Sirloin (10/1), Superior Glance (18/1)

FARMER JIMMY was much improved when making a successful handicap debut at Wetherby 2 weeks ago and is fancied to follow up with the further increase in trip promising to suit. Henrysbrotherjack is worth another chance back under more testing conditions and rates the main threat ahead of Getaway With You.
