Today we head to Doncaster with three runners.
First up is Matwana in the Fillies’ Juvenile Hurdle at 11.52am. She has run two solid races over hurdles, most notably in a listed race at Newbury last time out when she stayed on well. This is a drop down in class today. I think David Pipe’s horse will be extremely tough to beat after such a good debut but Matwana comes here in good form.
Next up is Jus De Citron in the Novices’ Hurdle at 1.02pm, who’s an absolutely beautiful horse. He’s been a very hard horse to get fit but he looks fantastic now. I think Doncaster will suit him well. He’s sure to improve for the run but he’s a great jumper and I think he has a nice each way chance.
Our final runner of the day is Pyffo in the Handicap Hurdle at 2.47pm. He ran a decent race on yard debut for me last time out, where it was clear a step up in trip was required. This looks an open race and I think if he puts his best foot forward then he’s handicapped to run a decent race without being obviously well treated.
