Visit Irish Bloodstock Sales With ITM EBF Mares' 'National Hunt' Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

4YO plus | Class 4 | 2m 4f 145y | 10 Runners | Turf

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds

Showed promise when third of 8 in bumper at Market Rasen on debut last summer but hasn't really built on that in 3 subsequent starts, including over hurdles. Likely a longer-term project but capable of making an impact at this lowly level.

Form: 3747

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: J M Quinlan| T: L Allan

125/1

Sole win from 14 starts in points and only minor promise on bumper debut. Has displayed more temperament than ability over hurdles, refusing to race at Wetherby prior to showing nothing at Fakenham.

Form: F324-R7

Kom Tu Voudras^t⁹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: H Cobden| T: Faye Bramley

4/9

Placed sole start in French bumper but flying too high on first start for Willie Mullins. Remote third behind a very well backed stablemate at Tramore on return before folding tamely at Fairyhouse 3 months ago. Has left Willie Mullins.

Form: 3/P-30

Polkaface^t1³⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: C Gethings| T: B I Case

20/1

Little to shout about in 3 bumpers and went with no encouragement on hurdling debut. Off 11 months. Up in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Westerner mare. Half-sister to fair chaser A Definite Getaway. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (17f-19f winner) Wenyerreadyfreddie and bumper winner/useful hurdler (2m-2½m winner) Shewearsitwell.

Spring Serenade²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Luke Scott⁽³⁾| T: K Bishop

13/2

Easy winner of sole start in Irish points but is bred for long distances and was never a threat both starts under Rules.

Form: 1-57

Kom Tu Voudras (1/1), Blue Marvel (7/4), Midnight Venture (9/4), Run Suzie Run (6/1), Polkaface (20/1), Spring Serenade (20/1), Warrioress (33/1), Indigo Sky (50/1), Callmesusie (66/1), Don't Cheddar Tear (66/1)

KOM TU VOUDRAS was a flop for Willie Mullins but maiden hurdles don't come much weaker than this and she looks the one to beat on the pick of her form. Midnight Venture showed ability when second in a Chepstow bumper and rates the main threat despite a 2-year absence. Blue Marvel can also make her presence felt.
