Verdict

A big field of fairly moderate handicap hurdlers, and a race in which it's best advised to give a swerve. The one certainty however is that there will be plenty of pace on offer with Uttoxeter runner up Bohernagore, Perth winner Wot A Shot and Cartmel scorer Oh So Gigolo among the likeliest candidates to go forward having already proved themselves as well suited to employing forcing tactics. Therefore, although this sharp track tends to suit front runners, the suspicion is that the pace might be an overly generous one, so a runner who can lie up close enough to the pace, and be produced from the final hurdle might be likeliest to prevail. The unexposed mare SENSE OF URGENCY could well fit that bill best and break her duck on her handicap debut for Lucy Normille in a low grade contest.
  1. Sense Of Urgency
  2. Wot A Shot
