Bangor-on-Dee

Tomorrow, April 25, 2025HurdleClass 42mGood Soft

Several of these are appealing, none more so than THE GRAFTER, who has been knocking on the door pretty loudly and is taken to gain a much-deserved first success here. Waspy has been absent for the best part of two years but this very lightly-raced 7-y-o is of strong interest nonetheless now venturing down the handicap route, while Celtic Art and the hat-trick seeking Fandabidozi are live each-way contenders.

    Verdict
    Yet to get his head in front but has made the frame on each of his half-a-dozen starts over hurdles, runner-up twice in December and has also found just one too good in handicaps over C&D and at Newcastle since undergoing a wind op. Solid claims.

    Verdict
    Plumpton bumper winner who took a thin 2m maiden hurdle at Southwell in November. Had to settle for minor honours next 2 starts but firmly back on track following a short break/wind op when landing a 16.5f Taunton novice last month and mark for this handicap debut looks reasonable.

    Verdict
    Built on hurdles debut promise when landing a C&D maiden last spring and made it 2 wins from 5 starts this time round when scoring in pretty decisive fashion at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft). This 7 lb higher mark asks a question but she's respected nonetheless.

    Verdict
    Winning pointer who shaped well when runner-up on hurdles debut here in February 2023. Absent since landing a maiden back here in May of that year (since left Donald McCain and has undergone a wind op) and market should point the way on this handicap/yard debut. Tongue strap applied.

    Verdict
    Twice a winner over hurdles, latterly taking a C&D off a 2 lb lower mark last spring. Little impact over fences first 2 starts of this season but more like it back in this sphere when third at Exeter this month and should make his presence felt.

    Verdict
    Off the mark at tenth attempt in this sphere when landing a Stratford handicap (18.7f, good) last spring. Failed to trouble the judge in a few runs on the Flat in recent months but resumed on an upward trajectory in this sphere when winning well over C&D recently and a 5 lb rise is fair enough.

    Verdict
    Showed improved form when off the mark for the campaign in 2m Warwick handicap in February. Put in his place in a higher-grade contest at Newbury next time but swiftly returns to 0-120 company and he's not discounted.

    Verdict
    Made excellent start to his hurdling career in 2020/21, winning novices on his first 3 starts before well-beaten in Grade 2 at Kelso in March that season. However, he now has a fair bit to prove having struggled in 2 starts since returning from a mammoth absence in January.

    Verdict
    Bought for €140,000 after winning sole outing in Irish points and looked professional when making a winning hurdles debut at Newcastle in January. However, she was turned over when odds on at Doncaster next time and again failed to justify favouritism on recent handicap bow at Warwick.
