Cartmel Race 1 - Hadwins Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
NEWBROOK DIAMOND (1) comes back across from Ireland after shedding the maiden tag two weeks ago attempting a maiden hurdle at Wexford. Finished third at Perth start before that and now has to defy a penalty. Old Gold Racing are responsible for two runners in this field. REBEL TRIBESMAN (2) looks to be a work in progress for Jamie Snowden and won nicely at Warwick end of May. Open to more improvement now up in trip. VISCOUNTESS NELSON (3) scored at Perth in April and is likely to give a bold account. NIGHTFLYER (4) is yet to gain a hurdling success and looks one for handicaps further down the line.

Racing well. Freshened for 59 days. Last start to post a big 4 len win. Warwick on May 20 over 3800m defeating Royal Rocket with 71.5kg at $1.30 in a hurdle. The start before that; finished second in a small field at Sedgefield on April 10 over 3400m, 1.75 len behind Chemistry with 70.5kg at $1.70. Fought on last time. Must be a chance again.

Last run finished fourth of 10 starters at Hexham on June 21 over 4000m, 8 len behind Dolly Dior carrying 68.5kg at $23. Before that finished sixth of 8 runners at Market Rasen on May 28 over 3700m, 27 len behind Wahraan carrying 68.5kg at $29. Not going well enough. Hard to have on recent efforts.

Last start ran last in a small field at this track on June 26 over 4400m, 54 len behind Loch Cuan carrying 60.5kg at $34. Start before didn't finish the race at Oxfordshire P2p on May 10 over 4200m. Needs to lift to be considered a chance in this.
