Southwell Race 5 - Festive Fixtures At Southwell Racecourse Mares' Novices' Hurdle
MADAM SPEAKER (6) placed on her first three jumpers flat contests . Clearly has stamina and starts off in a realistic contest tackling a sensible trip. Shortlist. CLONDAW PARK (3) won nicely a point to point. Subsequently managed to get the hang of things when third at Chepstow last time out. Remains a novice for a second season and is a major player. CELESTIAL FLOW (2) wears a tongue strap on debut and comes from a yard who are enjoying a fine time of things. Warrants thought as related to winners and interesting. IT TAKES TWO (5) looked in need of the experience at Huntingdon. One to consider.

Was at very long odds at debut, finished 11th of 13 runners at Uttoxeter on October 30 over 3200m, 36 len behind Merry Wood carrying 72kg at $51. First up effort suggests unlikely to be winning.
