Midland Breeders Mares Handicap Hurdle

No comments available for this runner.

Ivana D'alco returns on familiar going after a 28-day break, and her two wins in her last five starts — including a victory last time out — give her real claims, though a fall in recent form and a mark of 108 leave questions unanswered.

Small Bucks won two starts back but finished eighth last time out, and a six-day turnaround on today's going leaves freshness in question; the 164 lb burden will ask plenty of a mare ranked mid-division on ratings.

Del Boys Diva won two of her last five starts, with back-to-back victories two and three runs back giving her solid recent claims, but she was fifth last time out and our rating of 97 leaves her with ground to make up on the top-rated runners.

Rated well below her official mark on our figures and ranked near the foot of the field, Shirzan is hard to fancy despite a win two starts back and the fact she has run over today's trip and going before.
