Formscan By Gary Carson - MARIE’S MARCH ran really well on her last visit here and may be able to strike now. The Lucky Speed filly just failed to get up for second behind impressive winner King In Love and that form has been boosted recently with the fourth horse, Seskin Flash, winning easily at Downpatrick on Sunday. Star Official was running a solid race then before unseating at the last and could be thereabouts again. The well-bred Jerrari is one to note on his handicap debut having hinted at ability in maidens.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 0-100
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
