Crawford sends strong squad to Ayr Stuart Crawford is targeting plenty of prize money in Ayr with no less than eight horses declared to run at the Scottish track today. Ailie Rose holds favouritism in the Golf Inn Prestwick Handicap Hurdle over the extended three miles and it is worth noting that she has a course and distance victory in her locker. Joshua Des Flos is odds-on favourite for the Quiz Night At Golf Inn Prestwick Maiden Hurdle after finishing placed on his last two visits to Ayr. He is joined in this race by stablemates Raynbo and Supreme Authority. Dorking Cock shoulders top-weight in a competitive looking Jim 'Havana' McPherson Handicap Chase over an extended three miles. This 10-year-old gelding unseated JJ Slevin in the valuable Becher Handicap Chase last month but, prior to that, was in winning form over flights at Navan in November. Slevin takes the ride again. Ballycoose races in the 'double green' colours of Simon Munir and Isaac Souede in the Ayrshire Wedding Show Novices' Handicap Chase and this Mahler gelding was last seen finishing runner-up over hurdles at Ayr in December. Northern trainer Stephen McConville also sends Perfect Arch across the Irish Sea to contest the Ayr Completes Juilia's Racecourse Journey Handicap Hurdle.
