Kilbeggan Race 3 - Start Your Racing Tv Free Trial Now Mares Hurdle
VENUSIENNE (4) opened her hurdling account at a canter gaining a 27L Tramore maiden hurdle success when last seen during October. Drops in trip here and looks the one to beat if on-song after an eight-month hiatus. CARMEL'S PHOENIX (11) landed a 2.25L flat victory at Cork last month. Makes jumps debut. Market can guide. Galway jumpers flat winner MAXIMILLIAN LADY (6) was closer to last than first in a G3 jumpers flat at Punchestown on first outing for the Paul Hennessy stable. Rates highly stepping up in trip making hurdle debut. KENISA SPORT (1) won a maiden hurdle at the track around this time last year. Warrants thought racing first-up.
