Insight Surveyors Handicap Hurdle
Prediction Leader
Walkinthecotswolds (IRE)
0%
Now 9lb lower than when making all over hurdles at Chepstow (2m3f, heavy) in early 2025 but has poor completion record in the meantime; pulled up soon after bad jumping error in early stages of a recent chase and now reverts to hurdling; the forecast rain will aid her cause but her stamina is unproven and she can't be supported with much confidence.
Rest of field
Tyson (GER)
0%
Started off for Dan Skelton with some disappointing efforts but comfortably drew 10l clear at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to firm) nine days ago and has now won two of his last three; probably still well treated under 7lb penalty here and won't mind if the ground softens; hard to beat if stamina holds out on first venture beyond 2m6f.
Baltray (IRE)
0%
Yet to add to his maiden hurdle win in 2023 but fairly lightly raced in the meantime and ran quite well when third at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month; still unexposed over this sort of trip; raced mainly on good ground; could have a say.
Spitalfield (IRE)
0%
Ended string of heavy defeats when third in first-time cheekpieces here (3m1f, good; handes soft) last month but didn't find much in the closing stages, and it's hard to tell whether he'll build on that performance.
Groom De Cotte (FR)
0%
Won over fences 13 months ago but returned from layoff with lacklustre hurdle run in April and is difficult to enthuse over after that performance; has usual tongue-tie refitted; seems versatile ground-wise.
Touchwoodexpress (IRE)
0%
Absent since two below-par runs in November but returned from a break to win five-runner contest at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in September, and is now back on the same mark; seems best on good ground but once won a point on soft; can't be ruled out.
Broadway Honey (IRE)
0%
Beaten about 28l when fifth of six here (3m1f, good) last month and is now 0-6 over hurdles; seemed to be travelling okay in the lead before bad jumping error knocked the stuffing out of him that day and remains unexposed over this sort of trip but, nevertheless, others have stronger claims; raced only on good/good to soft ground.
Luna Run (IRE)
0%
Just 1-16 over hurdles when trained by Evan Williams and was unable to justify odds-on favouritism when only sixth of 12 here (2m5f, good) on last month's stable debut; may yet come good for Harry Derham, though, and this move back up in trip will suit; wears refitted tongue-tie; gained her win on good to firm but has form on good to soft; 3lb wrong.
Hitthekettle (IRE)
0%
Unplaced all nine hurdling starts; gave fairly good account before weakening into fourth of seven over C&D (good) in March but is effectively 9lb higher from out of the weights today; gained his point win on soft to heavy ground.
