Taunton Race 2 - C&D South West Novices' Handicap Hurdle

NOBLE BLUE (1) brings four wins and two runner-up finishes the last six starts including placing second on most recent appearance in a handicap hurdle at Exeter. Can go one better. SAINT POLO (3) left behind five disappointing efforts to place second in a 4000m Sedgefield novice handicap hurdle a month ago. Warrants thought as expected to challenge. JESSMAE (6) makes some attraction from bottom of the weights. Placed second at Chepstow providing final start in March 2025. Interesting after a break. MARHABA MILLION (4) finished a disappointing sixth on latest outing attempting a Wincanton novice handicap hurdle.

Resuming after a break; having raced just once last preparation ran last at Ascot on December 20 over 4700m, 73 len behind Jakar Du Moulin carrying 70kg at $26. When resuming last campaign finished third in a small field at Chepstow on April 21 over 4700m, 28 len behind Deep Purple carrying 73.5kg at $13. Capable and looks a top-three chance.

Racing second-up today. First-up after two months pulled up at Huntingdon on March 18 over 5000m. Previously second-up ran on from midfield to post a big 7 len win. Wincanton on December 4 over 4900m defeating West Orchard carrying 63kg at $4 in a hurdle. Not likely to threaten in this field.
