Bangor On Dee Race 3 - Bangor-On-Dee Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
RECKLESS SPENDING (1) First up after 9 weeks and came on strongly to finish 3rd first up last preparation in a hurdle at Ascot. Showing consistent performance in races. Good form for this class and absolutely good enough for this race. PARK PRINCESS (2) Didn't finish in a hurdle at Cheltenham on Mar 13th. Should muster plenty of early speed. Gavin Sheehan and Anthony Honeyball make a formidable team. Tracking very well this preparation. Not out of this. PATRICK'S WELLS (4) Came in 3rd last run in a hurdle at Carlisle. Oscar Palmer and Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith work well together. Solid place bet prospects. JOHNNY MOONSHINE (3) First up after a break. Didn't attack the line when 6th last time in a hurdle at Carlisle. Can make a comeback. Should be swooping on the field late. Include in chances.

First up after 9 weeks and was amongst the placegetters when 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L first up last preparation in a hurdle at Ascot. Nico De Boinville rates highly. Terrific hope.

Failed to finish in a hurdle at Cheltenham on Mar 13th. Should jump out and bowl along. Gavin Sheehan and Anthony Honeyball are a promising combination. Going well this campaign. Nice value bet.

Resuming after break. Odds of $5.50 and gave away some ground when 6th last time in a hurdle at Carlisle. Can make a comeback. Will be motoring home late. Should run a competitive race.

Finished 3rd last run in a hurdle at Carlisle. Jockey Oscar Palmer and trainer Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith are a strong combination. Win won't shock.

Back after a break. Lost ground in the run home when 8th last run in a hurdle at Doncaster. Displays very good closing speed. Rather have another day.
