Plumpton Race 5 - Starsports.bet Juvenile Hurdle (Gbb Race)
CENTRAL COMMAND (2) First up from a break of 18 weeks and dashed home to win first up last preparation at Newcastle. Gavin Sheehan and Jamie Snowden are a proven combination. Go well. BARBURY BOY (1) Finished 5th last time at Sandown. Expecting improvement here and facing a rise in trip. Appears as a winning threat. PANTILE'S GIFT (4) Racing fresh after a break of 28 weeks. Struggled with the pace when 8th last start at Yarmouth. Can show a better performance this time. Looks a worthwhile proposition today. NICOLAI (3) Ordinary performance when 6th last time in a hurdle at Newton Abbot. Likely to get back. Place looks best.

Started $201.00 and mediocre performance when 6th last time in a hurdle at Newton Abbot. Expected to settle towards the tail. Not in this.

First up after a break of 28 weeks. At $5.00 gave away some ground when 8th last start at Yarmouth. Can show a better performance this time. Winning potential.
