Sedgefield Race 3 - Heritage Drives The Goings Always Good Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)
REBEL TRIBESMAN (6) got off the mark under rules winning by 1L contesting a jumpers flat race tackling 3400m at Aintree back in May. Now represents a new trainer making hurdle debut. Can double up. LIBERTY COACH (4) has only placed once in four hurdling starts. Disappointed when pulling up in a 3200m handicap hurdle at Kelso on most recent appearance. Improvement expected. MATCHING ENERGY (5) managed to complete the race running eighth in a 3400m Carlisle novice hurdle. Fell over the same course and distance prior. More is needed. FEARLESS DRAGON (1) cannot be discounted after placing third at this venue previously.

Resumes from a spell after having raced just once last campaign came from midfield; finished ninth of 12 runners at Hereford on December 10 over 3250m, 60 len behind Soomaroy carrying 71.5kg at $21. Has performed well fresh in the past but this doesn't look easy.

Useful type. Last run pulled up at Kelso on February 13 over 3200m. Before that came from midfield; finished sixth of 8 runners at Doncaster on January 23 over 3300m, slow track; 43 len behind Minstrel Knight with 71kg at $7.50. Deserves another chance and is among the better hopes.

Resuming. Not seen since winning by 1.0 len Aintree May 16 over 3400m defeating Just A Glance carrying 70.5kg at $13. At debut 3 in a small field at Garthorpe April 26 over 4000m, 2.5 len behind Hugo Moss with 71.5kg. Makes appeal.
