Brucio (11-4 favourite) barely broke sweat when opening her account for Stuart Crawford in the opening Watch Racing TV Now Mares’ Maiden Hurdle at Catterick.

Carrying the colours of Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, Crawford's raider was a solitary ride on the card for leading jockey Daryl Jacob, who was securing only his second ever Catterick winner.

He said of the winner: “She felt good there today and she’s relished the ground. It was a very weak mares’ maiden, the ground was right and everything fell into place for her.

“The more I’ve ridden her the more she’s starting to get the hang of things. She’s a slow burner and hopefully with a summer’s break we might see her improve a little bit more.”

This was Crawford's fifth winner in the last weeks which included a treble at Ayr just over a week ago.
