Hereford Race 3 - Ludford Car Parts Group Mares' Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
KITTYS GLANCE (1) sets the standard after winning last start at Huntingdon over 3947m on good ground, scoring from the front of a small field and now similar trip with a slight weight rise. LADY KARA (3) is the main danger with solid recent placings, including 2nd at Stratford over 3282m then 3rd at Fakenham over 4024m, and she was runner-up here over 3267m earlier in the season. The remainder have shown limited end product at this level, with LIASSE D'ARGENT (4) well held when 6th at Stratford and 5th here previously.
