Runners Spotlight

Roarin' Success
Favorite

Best hurdles form when 10l second at 66-1 over C&D on second start; given wind surgery since latest; pretty useful Flat winner, so she may step up on this handicap hurdle debut.

Jockey: NON-RUNNERTrainer: Donald McCain

Book Of Secrets

Placed four times last June-September and he's on a handy mark on that form; however, not so good in his four starts since and the ground should not have been an excuse; tongue tied on last three outings.

Jockey: Leah Noreci(10)Trainer: James Moffatt
3
Lady Babs

12yo whose seven wins have been registered at either Market Rasen or Carlisle; latest was last April and she's now 9lb lower after a lean spell, but there were major signs of a revival on latest start before she fell (held in second at the final flight); considered but this may not be her track.

Jockey: Conor RabbittTrainer: Andrew Crook

Nottodaybobo

Returned from a long absence with what looked an encouraging stable debut last July but four heavy defeats have followed; tried 2m7f last time.

Jockey: Joshua Thompson(3)Trainer: Micky Hammond
5
Greer Hill

Second of five last April in his only Irish point but beaten 26l, 30l and 43l this autumn in his three runs over hurdles; absent five months before this handicap debut, for which the market may well guide.

Jockey: Luke Scott(3)Trainer: Jennie Candlish
