Bangor On Dee Race 7 - Festive Meeting Saturday 28th November Hcp Hurdle (Gbb Race)
BROOKSIDE LA (5) Bolted in when winning by a margin of more than 8L last start in a hurdle at Worcester and dropping weight. Jockey Harry Skelton rates highly. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . CHARISMA CAT (2) First up and finished strongly when 2nd beaten by 3 1/2L first up last preparation in a hurdle at Newbury. Has to be strongly considered. THE CISTERCIAN (3) Back from a break of 33 weeks. Close to claiming the win last time in a hurdle at Hexham and carrying less weight this time. Has very good closing speed. One of the hopes. STATIC (4) Ran well when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Uttoxeter. Displays good tactical speed. Keep in mind.

Racing fresh today after a 33 week spell. Close up last time in a hurdle at Hexham and goes down in weight. Will be trying to topple them late. Could go close.

Kicked clear when winning by more than 8L last start in a hurdle at Worcester and will benefit with the weight drop. Harry Skelton is a suitable booking. Will be competitive.
