Haydock Park Race 6 - Read Nicky Hendersons Unibet Blog Handicap Hurdle (GBB Race)

KILWAUGHTER (6) managed to improve on a promising runner up finish in January to score making handicap debut at Newbury next time out. Well worth giving another go now up in grade once again. RED RISK (1) has been a fine horse for connections in recent seasons and is of interest if back in the same form of his win at Musselburgh during February. DARTAN (2) received wind surgery since finishing second tackling fences at Uttoxeter in October. That was on the first start for this yard and looks open to plenty of improvement. SMOKERINGINTHEDARK (9) represents a yard in incredible form. Good winner at Newcastle recently and rates a major player.

Resumes racing after a long spell. Having raced just once last preparation ran last in a small field at Uttoxeter on October 17 over 4800m, 7 len behind Laurens Bay carrying 72.5kg at $3.30. When resuming last campaign finished eighth of 17 starters at Aintree on April 5 2025 over 4900m, 10 len behind Deep Cave carrying 72kg at $67. Worth thought on last run form.
