Newton Abbot Race 2 - Celebrate Racing Staff Week Juvenile Mdn Hurdle (Gbb Race)
SUDBURY HILL (2) shaped with promise when runner-up on jumps debut tackling 3200m at Hexham. Can take plenty from that experience and rates a leading chance. AFFECTION (3) makes her hurdle debut after finishing third on the flat attempting 2000m at Salisbury. Holds ability to have an immediate impact. Represents the main danger. KEEP UNDER WRAPS (1) is an unraced Massaat colt out of Gipsy Doll. Maintains appeal on paper and not discounted pending support in the betting. HEARTS TO HEAVEN (4) is a Dragon Dancer filly delivering her debut where any market confidence would be notable. Not to be discounted.

First race starter by Massaat out of Gipsy Doll. Makes his debut here in what looks a tricky race for him. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Tough test at his first appearance so prefer to see.

Last run ran on from midfield; finished second in a small field at Hexham on June 6 over 3200m, 4.5 len behind Tiny Riot with 69kg at $1.90. Start before finished 12th of 14 starters at York on May 14 over 2400m, 28 len behind Arc Ole Ole with 60.5kg at $8.50. Impressed last start. Will take a lot from that outing and is going to prove hard to beat.

Recent form impressive for this race. Last outing finished third of 7 runners at Salisbury on June 9 over 2000m, slow track; 8 len behind Regal Charm carrying 57kg at $34. The run before won by a long-neck Salon-de-Provence on April 16 over 2400m defeating Never Lost carrying 60kg at $1.60. Well-placed to play a major role the small field.
