A potentially interesting mares novices event to kick off the Market Rasen action, but it's worth bearing in mind that rail movements across the entire card will add significant yardage onto every single contest this afternoon, often as much as a furlong per race in many cases, so these mares will certainly need to stay. Both
Lucca Lady and
Malindi Bay arrive as bumper winners on these shores, the latter named needing to bounce back from a poor showing under a penalty latest. However, the horse of most interest is the now JP McManus owned
EBONYS ENCORE. This Oscar mare cost £35,000 following her debut Kilworth point-to-point success, and is almost certain to be well suited by any further rainfall ahead of her rules/hurdles debut.
