Ludlow Race 2 - Suzuki Atv Ebf 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
MISTERDOC (12) brings plenty of racecourse experience with one win and a placed effort in five career starts. Missed out on the placings providing UK and stable debut when fourth at Chepstow. Can bounce back. HORNICA (11) left behind three disappointing efforts to finish runner-up in a Windsor novice hurdle last month on fourth and latest career outing. May go one better dropping in standard. LEO WOOD (6) debuted third contesting a Compiegne hurdle last year. Now makes first attempt in the UK representing new yard. Not discounted. TITANIUM RING (9) needs to improve on a latest fifth at Ffos Las.

First ever race start 8 of 11 starters at Exeter February 21 over 3300m, in the wet; 26 len behind Claim The Throne with 71kg at $67. Harder here and happy to risk fresh in this line-up.
