Bangor On Dee Race 1 - Alfa Aggregates Products Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)
TOMMY PICKLES (9) arrives off the back of three sound efforts in novice or maiden hurdles with the last two performances coming on soft or heavy ground. Looks to have a fair level of ability and won't be far away. MOSSY FEN COOLIO (8) is a former point to point winner who wasn't disgraced finishing behind at the Cheltenham Festival last week. Improvement anticipated and warrants thought. DRAKARIS (10) looks a work in progress. Will be of more interest in a handicap going forward. DOUBLE INDEMNITY (3) caught the eye making hurdle debut at Carlisle. A big future is expected while holding each way claims at present.

Useful type. Resumes off a 46 day letup. Last start finished second of 12 runners at Carlisle on February 3 over 3400m, 2.25 len behind It's Top carrying 72kg at $29. Run before finished sixth of 8 starters at Aintree on December 26 over 3400m, 16 len behind No Walkover with 71kg at $26. Best form over the jumps stacks up well.

Comes off a 33 day let-up. Last run finished fifth of 10 runners at Carlisle on February 16 over 3400m, on slow going 39 len behind Johnny's Jury with 70kg at $81. The start before that; finished fifth of 8 starters at Ayr on January 13 over 3200m, on rain affected going; 33 len behind Diamant Dore with 71.5kg at $10. Likely to find this too tough without big improvement.

Ideally placed to make giant strides.

Last start finished eighth of 13 runners at Hereford on February 22 over 3200m, slow track; 26 len behind Just A Glance carrying 72.5kg at $81. Before that finished seventh of 11 starters at Ludlow on February 4 over 3200m, slow track; 26 len behind Sherminator carrying 66.5kg at $81. Capable of better showing. Certainly worth including.
