Betfair Race Reviews Summary
14:10 Fri 15 March 2024 BETMGM COUNTY HANDICAP HURDLE (PREMIER HANDICAP) (1) Distance 2m 179y (New) Prize £56,270 Race State Declaration Going Heavy Plenty with solid claims and it may pay to take a chance on SO SCOTTISH. Still going well when falling over fences here earlier this term, he teed himself up nicely for a tilt at this with a good fourth over hurdles at Leopardstown 6 weeks ago and his mark looks a workable one for a yard that has already hit the target this week. The improving King of Kingsfield, now handicapping, and Betfair Hurdle second L’eau du Sud are other key players. Risk Belle and Absurde are also shortlisted.
13:45 Fri 15 March 2024 WOODFORDES WHERRY NOVICES’ HANDICAP CHASE (5) Distance 3m 38y Prize £4,225 Age 5yo+ Runners 5 Going Good (Good to Soft in places) ELLEON soon bounced back to form when third at Sedgefield last time, despite having made his effort earlier than ideal, and he can gain a deserved first success over fences with blinkers applied. Ballylinch could still have more to offer after only 4 chase starts and is feared most, ahead of Kadex.
