Verdict

A very uncompetitive mares novices hurdle in which the penalised pair Indy Island and Molly Carew have at least shown most willing attitudes in managing to get their respective heads in front. However, despite this being much easier for Indy Island than the handicap she tackled at Fairyhouse recently, her clear stamina doubts can be exposed by the hurdling debutant OSCAR'S SONG as she steps up three and a half furlongs in trip representing a trainer who is an infrequent visitor to this County Durham track.
