Newcastle Race 5 - Smirnoff At Spy Bar Handicap Hurdle
FINGAL'S HILL (1) Ran 5th last time in a hurdle at Kelso. Expected to rebound but will be down in distance. Winkers on could be an important change. Should be going forward early. Will go close today. THE HATCHET (5) Big effort to place 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start in a hurdle at Newcastle and suited by the weight drop. Serious player. BUCEPHALUS (2) Didn't finish in a hurdle at Newbury on Feb 7th. Trainer has gone for the winkers on, take note. Hard to dismiss. INEDIT D'AMOUR (6) Finished 5th last run in a hurdle at Catterick but goes down in weight. Winkers on could be an important change. Should get going late. Respect against this field.

Odds of 14/1 and finished 5th last time in a hurdle at Kelso. Expected to rebound but coming back in distance. Likely to be well placed early. Strong claims.

Couldn't shake them off when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start in a hurdle at Newcastle and will appreciate the drop in weight. Will go close.
