Ffos Las Race 3 - Celtic Subaru Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
WHISKEY YANKEE (2) is clearly held in high regard. Shed the maiden tag at Ascot earlier in the season then tackled the G2 Prestige Novices Hurdle at Haydock Park where he didn't jump well enough to do himself justice finishing third. Providing he delivers a clear round here he could prove far too good. LON CHANEY (1) finished behind the main selection at Haydock last month and needs to put that run well behind him. SOLDIER FOR GLORY (4) looked in need of the outing here three weeks ago. May improve for that run. MAKINBECON (3) didn't land a blow here two weeks ago and will likely be up against it.

Freshened for 30 days. Last outing ran last at Haydock Park in the G2 Prestige Novices' Hurdle on February 14 over 4900m, 29 len behind Dalston Lad with 71kg at $12. The run before came from midfield and won by 8 len Uttoxeter on December 31 over 4700m defeating Inishcorker carrying 71.5kg at $2 in a hurdle. Starting to find best form now. Failed to run up to expectations most recently but can do much better.

Third-up today. Resuming won by 2.25 len Ascot on January 17 over 4300m slow going defeating Laguna Beach carrying 71kg at $15 in a hurdle. Last start finished fifth of 9 runners at Haydock Park in the G2 Prestige Novices' Hurdle on February 14 over 4900m, 14 len behind Dalston Lad with 71kg at $8. Continues to improve. Should prove a class above this field.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming ran on from midfield; finished fourth in a small field at this track on February 20 over 3200m, on a wet track; 36 len behind Shade Of Winter carrying 71.5kg at $21. Last start finished sixth of 9 runners at this track on March 1 over 4000m, on a wet track; 60 len behind Uptown Dandy with 73kg at $101. Happy to risk here.

Having third race start. First race start didn't finish the race at Punchestown P2p on February 22 2025 over 4828m. Went for a spell before returning made some head-way from midfield; finished third in a small field at this track on February 20 over 4000m, on heavy track; 17 len behind Harbour Island with 71.5kg at $8. Others rate better.
