Bangor On Dee Race 5 - Keegans Independent Drinks Suppliers Handicap Hurdle (Div 2)
EREMENKO (2) returned to winning ways securing a 7L victory at Plumpton earlier this month. Retains significant potential now switching to a handicap for the first time with Nico De Boinville remaining in the saddle. I C U IN MY DREAMS (4) produced fair form to date. Was a 6.5L winner at Newcastle end of March and could easily take another step forward among this company. LAS CANALS (1) finally got off the mark adopting a first time hood at Sedgefield in March. More expected here and is given a big chance. TITANIUM RING (3) remains a maiden after five attempts under rules. Holds ability and is one to watch.

Second-up today. Freshened for 39 days. Last start won by 1.3 len Sedgefield on March 10 over 3400m defeating Rebel Tribesman with 72kg at $34 in a hurdle. At only start last preparation made some head-way from midfield; finished ninth of 12 starters at Hereford on December 10 over 3250m, 60 len behind Soomaroy with 71.5kg at $21. Will strip fitter and makes plenty of appeal.

Having second run back today. Not raced for 60 days. First-up after two months pulled up at Market Rasen on February 17 over 3830m. Previously second-up finished fourth of 7 runners at Southwell on December 14 over 4100m, 7 len behind Just Her Type with 71kg at $2.60. Fitter for run. Worth another chance and cannot be discounted lightly.

Having second run back today. First-up after two months didn't finish the race at Sedgefield on April 1 over 3400m. Previously second-up came from midfield; ran last at Aintree in the LR on December 6 over 3400m, slow track; 32 len behind Lord with 70kg at $9. Forgive first-up failure. Well placed here and pay to follow up.

Start before ran last in a small field at this track on February 25 over 3300m, on slow going 17 len behind Harry Lowes with 70kg at $151. Prefer to watch at this stage. Not sure he is up to this.

Racing second-up today. Fresh up after almost two and a half years finished fourth of 8 runners at Carlisle on April 4 over 3900m, 14 len behind Different Drum with 75.5kg at $12. Previously second-up eased back early on finished sixth of 8 starters at Sedgefield on November 9 2023 over 4000m, on slow going 16 len behind Supremely West carrying 70.5kg at $81. Further improvement needed to be winning this.
