Wetherby Race 1 - Entertain In Style At Wetherby Racecourse Mares' 'National Hunt' Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)
SALLYVILLE LADY (7) produced three solid efforts to date including latest in a handicap after winning her point. Slight drop in distance on better ground promises to suit and may get off the mark. GIRL FRIDAY (2) is an interesting contender providing first hurdle start. Won a small-field Irish point in October and joining new connections holds potential. JOAN'S CHOICE (4) progressed nicely in jumpers flat races culminating in a 2L victory at Plumpton (3600m). Thereabouts. BIGLESISBACK (1) has been given a few chances now finishing runner-up three times. Must bounce back from a poor performance last time. Each way possibility.

Impressive in recent runs. Resumes off a 41 day letup.

The run before ran on from midfield; finished second in a small field at Uttoxeter on December 19 over 4400m, in the wet; 8 len behind Coolanna with 70kg at $4. Expected to go close again.
