Adare Manor Opportunity Mares Maiden Hurdle

Off time: 16:42 | Winning time: 5m 10.30s

Chautuaqua¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Michael Kenneally⁽²⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 98| C

14/1

Bumper winner but long-standing maiden over hurdles. Showed she retains her ability after 12 months off when second of 10 in novice at Gowran 19 days ago but far from certain to build on that given her profile.

Form: 3/UU5P-2

Early Bird⁵¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Philip Donovan| T: Jonathan Sweeney

16/5

Bumper winner who shaped as if better for the run on hurdles bow at Naas before out of her depth at Fairyhouse last month. Remains with potential back at a suitable level.

Form: 64-174

Isdistheone⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: James Smith| T: R Murphy

10/1

Modest maiden in bumpers and made little impression sole start over hurdles.

Form: 034667

Jury Belle¹⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁴⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 104

11/1

Won sole start in point bumpers and runner-up on first of 2 starts in bumpers. Similar form over hurdles, racing inefficiently when fourth of 16 at Thurles latest. Capable of being involved.

Form: 124344

Lady Aquarelle²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Aidan Kelly| T: T Cooper

250/1

Well held both starts in maiden hurdles.

Form: F-F600

Mind The Steps²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Peter Smithers⁽⁴⁾| T: N Lee

250/1

Pulled up both starts in points and too free on hurdling debut.

Form: PP8

Miss Georgina²³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Tiernan Power Roche| T: A Lee| OR: 100

15/2

Better form in mares maidens when fourth last 2 starts but handicaps over further will be more her bag.

Form: 8-6544

Mysilverriverfeale^h1²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Carl Millar⁽²⁾| T: T Cooper

50/1

Mid-field in 2 bumpers and shaped as if better for run when well-beaten sixth of 18 in conditional jockeys maiden at Thurles on hurdling debut/return. Hood goes on.

Form: 566

Sarah's Express¹⁰⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Richard Condon⁽²⁾| T: P A Fahy| OR: 90

66/1

Behind only start in bumper and little solid form over hurdles.

Form: 77-85P

Sound Judgement²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Josh Williamson⁽²⁾| T: G Elliott

15/8

Successful sole outing in points and made a positive start under Rules when third in bumper at Punchestown in December. Left hurdles debut behind when second in mares maiden at Navan and looks the one to beat with extra distance sure to suit.

Form: 1-3P2

Tangara Bay⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Patrick M O'Brien⁽²⁾| T: H De Bromhead

3/1

Runner-up on first of 2 starts in bumpers and promise both outings over hurdles 6 months apart, fifth of 18 in novice at Thurles 8 weeks ago (bad mistake 2 out). Remains with potential.

Form: 24-45

Windy Grey¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: John Aherne⁽⁴⁾| T: A O'Grady

300/1

50/1, well held in maiden hurdle at Gowran on debut.

Form: 8

Forecasts

Sound Judgement (15/8), Tangara Bay (3/1), Early Bird (16/5), Miss Georgina (15/2), Isdistheone (10/1), Jury Belle (11/1), Chautuaqua (14/1), Mysilverriverfeale (50/1), Sarah's Express (66/1), Lady Aquarelle (250/1), Mind The Steps (250/1), Windy Grey (300/1)

SOUND JUDGEMENT proved her hurdles debut was all wrong when runner-up in a similar event at Navan and she should take the beating with this longer trip sure to suit. Tangara Bay and Early Bird remain with potential and look best of the others.
