Worcester Race 5 - James Brewer 21 Years Undefeated Hcp Hurdle

OUR GUIDE (3) goes handicapping for the first time after succeeding for this yard at Exeter before running well to win by 3.25L at Stratford-Upon-Avon. Retains significant potential moving forward and the stable are in sparkling form this summer. SURE TOUCH (2) returned to winning ways on the final outing last season at Market Rasen in October. Freshened and deserves a market check. PADDY DE POLE (4) returns from an absence however enjoys summer ground. Freddie Gingell is back on board and he is a major player. MINELLA RESCUE (1) drops in grade having been set daunting tasks of late and is considered.
