Ludlow Race 1 - Radnor Hills Water Mares' Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
FIRST CANDIDATE (1) got off the mark for this stable comfortably winning a Haydock Park maiden hurdle last month by 9.5L when very well supported in the market. Capable of replicating that success racing for a stable in flying form. ENYA (5) indicated plenty of promise on a number of starts to date and may prove capable of winning a contest of this nature though might have plenty to find on the favourite. SILVEREEN (7) will be better suited to handicaps after this third attempt hurdling. In the mix. BRIERY ROSE (3) didn't offer a huge amount of hope three weeks ago and is best watched against this field.

She is resuming after a five months break. Finished off last campaign 7 of 11 runners at this track December 17 over 3200m, 35 len behind Stroke Play with 70kg at $67. First ever start ran 5 in a small field at Hereford November 3 over 3200m, 12 len behind Planters Punch carrying 66.5kg at $126. Would need to be at best to feature.

Freshened for 52 days. Last run finished third of 12 runners at this track on March 19 over 3200m, 5 len behind Borna Gem with 67.5kg at $8. Run before finished seventh of 8 starters at this track on February 4 over 3200m, slow track; 20 len behind King Al carrying 66.5kg at $126. Forward showing expected. Close-up last time and worth including with a repeat of the run here.
