Wincanton Race 1 - Bath & West Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)
GRAND VENDETTA (2) Solid effort when winning by 1 1/2L last time in a hurdle at Taunton. Amongst the placegetters at every start this preparation. Jockey Harry Cobden is highly regarded. Play of the day. AMATCHMADEINHEAVEN (1) Finished on top by 1L last run in a hurdle at Exeter and showing consistent performance in races. Should jump out and bowl along. Can win this. SOGNA IN GRANDE (3) Fresh from a spell. Was all too good winning by 3/4L last run in a hurdle at Warwick and having second career run. This field suits. CATWALK GIRL (5) Fairly underwhelming when 5th last time in a hurdle at Southwell. Could place.

Solid win by 1L last run in a hurdle at Exeter and promising career start. Should muster plenty of early toe. Will be competitive.

Did a good job when winning by 1 1/2L last time in a hurdle at Taunton. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Looks set to run a big race.

Back from a break. Showed promise when winning by 3/4L last run in a hurdle at Warwick and was on debut last time. Should be going forward early. Definite contender.

Back after a 40 week spell. Failed to finish in a hurdle at Newton Abbot on June 24th. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Can't have today.
