Chloe Mediumship Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Off time: 13:43 | Winning time: 3m 55.34s

Trouville²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 117| D

11/10

Fairly useful winner at up to 2m on Flat for Simon & Ed Crisford and built on a considerate hurdling debut when readily landing 9-runner maiden at Worcester (2m) 23 days ago. Type to go on improving.

Form: 31

Biggles⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey

10/3

Smart at best on the Flat (raced mainly at 7f) and showed an aptitude for hurdling belatedly switching codes on first outing for over 2 years/since leaving Eve Johnson Houghton when second in 5-runner novice over C&D in June. Remains to be seen if he's able to build on that.

Form: 2

Don De La Frontera¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: J J Burke| T: T Bulgin

80/1

Last both starts in points and didn't achieve a whole lot more when seventh of 12 in Market Rasen bumper on Rules debut 19 days ago.

Form: 78-7

Bailey's Luck^h⁵⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Poste| T: C Hobson

300/1

Well held on his only outing on the Flat and didn't take to hurdling with a hood fitted at Market Rasen (19f, good) in May, pulled up before fifth.

Form: P

Likewhatyousee²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 110

6/4

Progressive middle-distance winner on Flat for C. W. J. Farrell. Changed hands for 60,000 gns and confirmed the promise of hurdling debut when making short work of her rivals in 17f maiden at Newton Abbot 3 weeks ago, well on top finish. Can go on improving.

Form: 21

Tracker Issue³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Ryan Mania| T: A Nicol

125/1

Long standing maiden on the Flat (unproven beyond 12.5f) and was well held back on softer ground at Ayr on latest start. Others more convincing on this switch to hurdling.

Form:

Zerouali¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Shane Quinlan⁽³⁾| T: B Lund

300/1

Went with no promise in a C&D bumper (good to soft) on debut 17 days ago, going in snatches. Easily passed over on this switch to hurdling.

Form: 6

Letmeseethecolts²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: B Ellison

33/1

Modest up to 1½m on the Flat and ran to a similar level sent hurdling when second of 9 in 17f maiden at Cartmel last month, despite a clumsy round of jumping. Not sure to build on that.

Form: 2

Miss The Sting⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Lee Edwards| T: C & A Pogson

300/1

Placed in points but has offered little in a bumper/maiden hurdle 16 months apart.

Form: 8/P

Whermyrosemarygoes⁷⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: H Cobden| T: Faye Bramley

16/1

€48,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park mare. Dam (h90), maiden hurdler, half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 25f) Pym. Placed last 2 starts in Irish points (latest May 10) and well worth a close look in the betting with Harry Cobden in the saddle.

Form: 452-3

Amalfina¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Jack Hogan| T: D J Jeffreys

100/1

Fair maiden on the Flat at up to 1½m for Karl Burke and is seemingly being brought along with handicaps in mind in this sphere, keeping on for remote third in a C&D novice latest.

Form: 73

Cool Million²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Harry Kimber| T: Faye Bramley

100/1

Has shown a bit in bumper outings, though not without suggesting she may not be totally straightforward.

Form: 53

Pearl Knot¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Toby Wynne| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

125/1

Looks one for handicaps at longer trips later on.

Form: U5

Forecasts

Trouville (11/10), Likewhatyousee (6/4), Biggles (10/3), Whermyrosemarygoes (16/1), Letmeseethecolts (33/1), Don De La Frontera (80/1), Amalfina (100/1), Cool Million (100/1), Tracker Issue (125/1), Pearl Knot (125/1), Zerouali (300/1), Bailey's Luck (300/1), Miss The Sting (300/1)

LIKEWHATYOUSEE and Trouville have both made promising starts to their hurdle careers and are better prospects than usual for the time of year. Distinguishing between them isn’t easy, with narrow preference for Jonjo & A. J. O’Neill’s 4-y-o filly, whose Newton Abbot win was given a timely boost by the third since. Wheremyrosemarygoes has been placed in Irish points and warrants a market check ahead of Rules debut with Harry Cobden booked to ride.
