Realistically there are only three runners with a chance in this rather dismal opener to Ladies Day at Hexham.
Horace Hazel should appreciate this longer trip and drop in grade after a decent showing in a Uttoxeter handicap hurdle, whilst the 2m7f trip is a slight concern for 2m course winner
Towering. The booking of George Blackwell, who receives a handy 8lb claim (for his own stable) sways the vote towards
BALLYROCK. A reproduction of either of his last two performances in this company ought to be good enough for this top-rated (120) veteran.
- Ballyrock
- Horace Hazel
