Newton Abbot Race 6 - Newton Abbot Open Maiden NH Flat Race (GBB Race)
DUHALLOW STORM (5) is an unraced gelding by Walk In The Park out of Duhallow Gesture. That pedigree points to a bright start and profiling strongly can make a winning debut. MAX D'AIRY (7) provided two flat runs where latest Kempton fifth over 3200m was a creditable performance in this context. Worth considering as may give a good account. TARANIS DUBH (3) created a favourable impression landing a point to point at Umma House on debut six months ago. Now joins Olly Murphy and experience is a major asset so warrants respect. QUICKKICK (2) also enters calculations as one of the genuine hopes in this open affair.

Resuming after a break; at only start last campaign finished tenth of 11 starters at Exeter on January 9 over 3300m, 102 len behind Mortal Coil with 67.5kg at $101. Hard to enthuse off the first run and happy to overlook.

This Walk In The Park bred gelding is now four-year-old and his having his first race start. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Nice profile and expected to measure up.

Resumes from a spell after having raced just once last preparation ran on from midfield; ran last at Chepstow on January 27 over 3200m, on slow going 107 len behind Keltype with 61.5kg at $201. When resuming last campaign ran last at Wincanton on November 20 over 3000m, 27 len behind Bailly's Comet carrying 66.5kg at $51. This might test him.

Having third race start. Was promising at debut finished second of 8 runners at Nancy on September 28 over 2500m, on heavy track; 2 len behind Malissa Mans carrying 62kg. Went for a spell before returning finished fifth of 10 starters at Kempton Park on March 14 over 3200m, 11 len behind Prince Rupert with 70kg at $5. Capable of taking this out.
