SIS Handicap Hurdle

Rated 105 and ranked third of 19, Go To Town brings solid claims having run over today's going before, and 25 days since his last start leaves him fresh and ready; yet winless in his last five starts, and a trainer without a winner in 27 attempts over the past fortnight is a concern.

General Clermont heads the ratings and brings distance-and-going experience to the table, but his recent form gives pause — a fourth three starts back is the best he can show in his last five, and he arrives yet to win in that spell. Fresh enough on 35 days off, the 167 lb burden is the key test.

Consistent placed performer who has been runner-up three times in recent starts, with experience over today's trip and going working in his favour — the main risk is he remains winless and that fifth last time out raises a question mark.

Placed third last time out and fourth two starts back, Phoenix Arizona has experience over today's trip and going, though winless in his last five starts; at 162 lb, the weight is a further hurdle for a gelding who finds himself ranked eighth of nineteen.

Andyourbirdcansing won last time out and has run over today's trip and going, giving her some grounding for conditions, but her record in recent starts shows that win is the exception rather than the rule, and 160 lb is a stern test.
