Newton Abbot Race 2 - Bay Tree Cottage Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)
MALDINI MILANO (4) returns from a six-month break after a second on the flat at Wincanton. Well-suited for his jumps debut and poised for a big run first-up. A PAI DE NOM (1) placed on racecourse debut at Chepstow behind a subsequent Listed jumpers flat winner. Off-track since a fifth of seven effort at Sandown in February. Warrants interest representing shrewd stable. CINNODIN (2) is a multiple winner on the flat who finished sixth making jumps debut at Fontwell for Jamie Snowden. In the mix. Any moves in the market for GENERAL BRIAR (3) can be noted.

Was at big odds at debut, pulled up at Worcester on September 5 over 3200m. Needs plenty of improvement to play a role here.
