Haydock Park Race 1 - Watch Unibet Racing Postcast Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
INTOSOMETHINGGOOD (1) bounced back to form after being pulled up tackling G2 level when scoring narrowly at Kempton Park five weeks ago. Connections appear to have found another good opportunity. Hard to beat. LE BEAU MADRIK (2) looked progressive with a brace of Newcastle wins earlier in the season before pulling up in a G2 at Kelso during February. This looks more realistic. MATTY'S GETAWAY (4) the tongue-strap brought big improvement last time when winning by 4.5L a maiden hurdle at Doncaster. Not dismissed in receipt of weight. PADRE ARTHUR (5) distant second last time out and of more interest in handicaps further down the line.
