Carlisle Race 2 - Pricedup Now With Best Odds Guaranteed Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
Point-to-point winner KEOPS DES BORDES (3) indicated plenty of potential on two rules starts to date managing a debut second at Warwick when behind a future G1 winning hurdler prior to a decent 4.5L fourth on heavy going at Ayr during April. Open to further improvement now hurdling. Top pick for the Skelton team. RONNIE RUSSET (6) completed a double in jumpers flat events at Newcastle last campaign before a ninth attempting a 3400m G2 jumpers flat race at Aintree. Shortlist making hurdle debut. OCEAN MASTER (5) caught the eye gaining a 3L victory in a 4800m Irish point-to-point during March. Interesting. LAUVERGNAT (4) deserves a market check.
