Sedgefield Race 2 - Bet365 'National Hunt' Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)
DARTMOUTH CASTLE (1) Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 2nd last time in a hurdle at Newcastle. In strong racing shape this campaign. Looks the one. WENDYWILLDO (5) Back from a 53 week spell. Ran on strongly when 2nd last time in a hurdle at Newcastle. First start for a new trainer. Suited. WHENTHEMUSICSTOPS (2) First up and tidy effort when 2nd first up last preparation in a hurdle at Plumpton. Displays good tactical speed. Not out of this. OWZTHAT (3) Fresh after break of 164 weeks. Subpar when 6th last start at Catterick. Change in trainer. Place chance.

First up and in the money when 2nd first up last preparation in a hurdle at Plumpton. Should race on the speed. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Resumes from a 164 week break. Just average when 6th last start at Catterick. Coming to a new trainer. Could not recommend.
