Cheltenham

Tomorrow, April 17, 2025HurdleClass 22m4f

This is wide open but PAWAPURI made an encouraging start for Dan Skelton when fourth at Chepstow and can build on it here to resume winning ways. Mermaids Cave returns from a break but is not taken lightly in her bid for a sixth success of the campaign, while the progressive Shantwopointfive is also well in the mix. Sunday Soldier, Batwomen and Greyval also need factoring into this highly competitive handicap.

    Useful Flat performer who won twice over hurdles at the end of 2023 for Nicky Henderson. Not seen to best effect when an encouraging fourth of 7 on yard bow in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good) 32 days ago. A likely player.
