Hereford Race 1 - Hereford Easter Monday Family Raceday Fillies' Juvenile Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)
This looks the perfect opportunity for WHITLETTS (9) who managed to take gradual steps forward both starts for the Dan Skelton stable. Encountered an impressive rival when second at Ludlow before Christmas. Rates the one to beat. THE PROCRASTINATOR (7) got off the mark at Doncaster attempting a jumpers flat before struggling at Ludlow last time. Goes hurdling for the first time and cannot be ruled out. CANTALICE (3) was far from disgraced on debut eighty six days ago. Will need form to reach a new level if proving competitive in this contest. Irish-raider ANNIE'S ANGEL (1) deserves a market check having been held at Thurles two weeks ago

Last run finished eighth of 12 runners at Wincanton on January 15 over 3000m, on slow going 37 len behind Sinchi Roca with 64.5kg at $51. Start before ran on from midfield; finished fifth of 11 runners at Ludlow on December 17 over 3200m, 18 len behind Stroke Play with 70kg at $41. Could prove harder to beat this time.

Resuming after a break; having raced just once last preparation finished fourth in a small field at Leicester on November 17 over 3100m, slow track; 50 len behind Manganese carrying 67.5kg at $21. First up last campaign ran last at Southwell All Weather on March 14 over 2200m, 12 len behind Dojin with 58kg at $9.50. Fitness an issue. Returns in tougher company and happy enough to watch this time.

Had two starts to date. At debut, held ground to the line finished third of 7 starters at Warwick on November 20 over 3200m, 10 len behind La Luna Artista with 70kg at $2.50. Last start raced on speed throughout then finished second of 11 starters at Ludlow on December 17 over 3200m, 10 len behind Stroke Play carrying 70kg at $8. Can bounce back hard here. Ideally placed to break the ice.
