Exeter Race 1 - Crs Building Supplies 'National Hunt' Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)
There will be winners coming out of this maiden hurdle. ON THE BAYOU (11) can be expected to go close as did just that last time finishing runner-up over course and distance here during December. Different ground encountered this time and could prove hard to beat. LIMIER D'ARTHEL (9) managed to win providing his second outing in France and wasn't without support making his British debut in January before falling at the first at Huntingdon. Providing he gets a clear round may go well. CAN'T RESIST IT (4) was held when behind at Cheltenham. This looks easier. CRYSTAL ORCHARD (5) hinted ability and is one to watch.

Resumes off a 36 day letup. Last outing didn't finish the race at Wincanton on January 29 over 4300m. The run before sat on the pace then finished second of 9 runners at Fontwell Park on January 11 over 3500m, slow track; 13 len behind Limerick Lass carrying 71kg at $51. Not likely to threaten in this field.
