Carlisle Race 1 - Copybet Supporting Uk Horse Racing Ebf Junior 'National Hunt' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
MOLLY'S LAD (4) revisited the top-three last time out when third contesting a juvenile hurdle at Doncaster last month having finished fifth in a Listed jumpers flat race at Cheltenham prior. Expected to challenge. LUCY THE WIRE (1) is racing consistently with two runner-up efforts and a win. Finished second in a juvenile hurdle at Haydock Park on the back of a 1.5L victory at Leicester and can return to winning ways. MAJORDOMO (2) makes hurdle debut on the back of a 2.5L success in a jumpers flat race at Newcastle during November. Might double up. MASTERFIELD (3) rounds out the shortlist after failing to place first two starts.

Resuming after a two months break. Finished off last campaign 2 in a small field at Haydock Park December 30 over 3100m, 4.5 len behind Diamond Jim carrying 70kg at $3.80. First ever race start 2 of 15 starters at Cork October 12 over 3520m, 5.5 len behind Quinta Do Lago carrying 66.5kg at $41. Looks a winning chance.

Resumes from a spell after only had one start last when he won by 2.25 len Newcastle All Weather on November 14 over 3400m defeating Mac's Max carrying 68.5kg at $5. Likely to play a big part.

Raced twice to date. At debut, finished fourth of 8 starters at Wetherby on December 6 over 3200m, slow track; 12 len behind Solly's Gold with 67.5kg at $8. Last start finished fifth of 7 runners at this track on February 3 over 3400m, 18 len behind Irish Goodbye carrying 71kg at $8. Not an appealing prospect despite a scarcity of opponents.

Resumes off a 31 day letup. Last outing sat on the speed and boxed on steadily finished third of 8 runners at Doncaster on February 5 over 3300m, 9 len behind Mustang Du Breuil carrying 67.5kg at $6. Run before finished fifth of 16 runners at Cheltenham in the LR on January 1 over 3400m, 9 len behind Solly's Gold with 70kg at $6. Perfectly placed to take care of the small field.
