5/4
Half-brother to useful dual bumper winner/fairly useful 2m/2½m hurdle winner Destination Dubai, from good NH family. 9/2, encouraging start when second of 6 in similar event at Hereford 3 weeks ago, pulled clear of remainder (also lost a shoe). Entitled to improve and obvious claims.

9/1
9/1, offered something to work on first time up in bumper at Market Rasen 6 weeks ago, plugging on. One to note now hurdling.

Masar gelding. Dam a fairly useful hurdler (winner around 2m, including here), also 1¼m-1½m winner who stayed 14.5f on Flat, half-sister to fairly useful 19f/21f hurdle winner Favorite Moon. Appealing newcomer on paper.

50/1
Half-brother to 3 winners, including fair hurdler Pillar of Steel and poor hurdler/chase winner Shutthegate. Dam 2m hurdle winner. 50/1, little promise and well held in Ludlow bumper on debut 3 weeks ago.

Timeform
Way To Paris gelding. Dam lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Pumbaa and fairly useful hurdler/chaser (winner around 2m) Carcaci Castle. Could go well on debut.
|
Timeform
Half-sister to 1¼m winner Life On The Rocks, from the family of useful hurdler (2m winner) Britzka. Much improved from debut when winning Huntingdon bumper a fortnight ago. One to consider on quick switch to hurdling.

12:25 Doncaster - 28 November 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Some appealing newcomers to hurdling but AQUA BLEU made a bright start in this sphere at Hereford and could be hard to beat. Dontelimurnamepike and recent bumper winner Laysoft could be the dangers.
