Best Odds Guaranteed At Vickers.Bet Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race) (Div 2)

Made the frame on plenty of occasions when trained in Ireland and shaped well on second start for new yard when seventh of 19 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, good) in November, finishing with running left. Shortlisted.

Half-brother to 3 winners but didn't offer much in a couple of bumpers and is best watched on hurdles debut.

Point winner last year and made the frame in first 3 starts over longer trips for current yard. Shaped as if amiss when last seen in October, though, and something to prove now.

Fair performer on level (winner over 9.5f) and related to useful bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Gold Award. Market check advised on NH debut here.

Fairly useful winner at 7f on Flat who shaped as if in need of the experience when third of 8 in juvenile hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft, 11/4) on NH debut 98 days ago, refusing to settle. Had wind operation since and is worth monitoring in the market.

Fair Flat winner who left his NH debut form well behind when close second of 13 in novice hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, soft, 33/1) 26 days ago. Entitled to build on that.

Modest performer in France, last seen when eighth of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Moulins (17.4f, good to soft) 11 months ago. Likely best watched on first start for new connections unless market speaks in her favour.

Fairly-useful Flat winner who made a solid start for David Pipe when fourth of 15 in handicap at Newbury (10f, heavy) 16 days ago, not knocked about. Must enter calculations on hurdles bow.

Fair maiden on the Flat and acquitted herself well in 3 starts over timber for Jessica Harrington. Not in same form, on debut for new yard, at Cheltenham last month but sights lowered now and must enter calculations.
