Fontwell Park Race 1 - Gary Wraight Memorial Mares' Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
MISS GOLDFIRE (4) brings plenty of racecourse experience and is proving consistent with three runner-up finishes including by a head in latest over 5200m at this venue 50 days ago. Steps back in distance. Leading contender. LAHINCH WAVE (1) produced a good 1.5L victory attempting a Worcester jumpers flat race in September. Interesting on hurdle debut wearing first-time hood. Dangerous. ABBEY LAW (7) won impressively by 3.25L at Fakenham last time. Can build on that result. NEON MADONNA (6) rounds out the shortlist.
