Boardsmill Stud Mares Handicap Hurdle

Three-time hurdle winner ran respectably off 1lb higher in handicaps when last seen, beaten 7l; was second in this race last year on seasonal debut; good ground suits so one to consider.

Won four in a row on the Flat plus a maiden hurdle in 2023; not many runs since when set some stiff tasks at times; well beaten over hurdles last time and has to bounce back.

Point winner is yet to score over hurdles but some good runs in defeat and went closest when runner-up at Wexford over 2m last month; handles good ground and has a chance on handicap debut.

Five-time winner between jumps and the Flat including at this track; is 7lb higher than for last hurdle win at Tramore last August and might need this outing.

Maiden posted her best handicap run over 2m4f at this track last summer; has run well at times since but has paid the price for some poor jumping; pulled-up on chasing debut on return.
