Exeter Race 5 - Ludo Sports & Live Lounge Mares' Handicap Hurdle

SWEET CARYLINE (2) has been in fine form this season. Ended taking a step backwards when climbing in grade at Cheltenham during December. Good winner at Wincanton in November and if back to that form will prove hard to beat. GAME COLOURS (1) continues to go well in defeat at the moment. Beaten favourite at Windsor on New Years Day. Could find conditions to her liking and cannot be ruled out. COOLKATIE (4) was expected to go close when last seen at Ayr tackling a maiden hurdle. On handicap debut she is a major player. KLASSY PEARL (3) looks a talented mare who was runner up at Ayr in front of the just mentioned. One to note.

Recent form hard to fault. Resumes off a 50 day letup. Last outing finished second of 8 runners at Windsor on January 1 over 4000m, 4.5 len behind Easy Love carrying 74kg at $4.30. Race before finished third of 9 runners at Cheltenham on December 13 over 4100m, 4 len behind Nurse Susan carrying 65.5kg at $7.50. Continues to make headway. Should prove hard to beat

Resumes after two months. Finished off last preparation 6 of 9 starters at Cheltenham December 13 over 4100m, 8 len behind Nurse Susan with 65kg at $6.50. Previous preparation first-up won by a neck Chepstow October 10 over 3200m defeating Princess Keri carrying 76kg at $4.50. Hard to enthuse despite the small field.

Last outing rolled along in front setting the pace and then edged out finished second of 8 starters at Ayr on January 29 over 3200m, on slow going 5.5 len behind Apples Jane with 71.5kg at $6.50. Before that finished sixth of 14 starters at Taunton on January 17 over 3300m, 17 len behind Heron In The Park carrying 71.5kg at $13. Not keen on her chances this time.

Last run tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily finished fourth of 8 starters at Ayr on January 29 over 3200m, on slow going 12 len behind Apples Jane with 71.5kg at $2.40. The start before that; fell at Warwick on December 31 over 4200m. Continues to improve. Worth including here if repeats the run.
