Sky Sports Racing Handicap Hurdle

Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Form	Jockey / Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
4th	1	—	Striking A Pose (G) FAV Had a largely disappointing season but ended it with a bang when taking advantage of reduced mark over C&D 3 weeks ago in gutsy fashion. No guarantees he'll be able to back that up, though.	6951-45	Freddie Gingell J Tizzard	10	75.3kg	4 3/1
3rd	2	—	Baltray (G) Hit-and-miss performer who found only an improver too strong in 2¾m Stratford handicap in October but in nothing like the same form next 2 starts 4 months apart.	62P5-36	Liam Harrison Miss E C Lavelle	8	74.8kg	8.50 15/2
6th	3	—	Despereaux (G) P Hereford winner in December but not in same form back from a break there last 2 starts.	932155-	Thomas Bellamy Mrs J Williams	7	73.9kg	9 8/1
1st	4	—	Supreme Yeats (G) FAV PT Successful over 23f in this headgear at Uttoxeter last summer but out of sorts lately. Back on a handy mark and any market support would be of note stepping up in trip and reunited with Harry Skelton.	08-1131	Harry Skelton D Skelton	10	73.5kg	4 3/1
5th	5	—	Alan Bresil (G) P Stoutly-bred gelding who will be suited by this longer distance. Mark has reduced further so not impossible.	5758-52	Harry Reed Nick Scholfield	6	73kg	15 14/1
—	6	—	Sam's Amour (M) Pulled Up Successful 3 times over hurdles in 2024. Good second over C&D last summer but she's struggled since.	5P66-P4	Sean Houlihan Kieran Burke	9	72.1kg	19 18/1
—	7	—	Juggernaut (G) T Failed to win last season but plenty of placed efforts, having no problem with this longer trip when second under this rider at Stratford latest. Can be in the mix again.	34322-3	James Robottom A J Honeyball	7	72.1kg	4 3/1
—	8	—	Mister Barclay (G) FAV Pulled Up Consistent type on testing ground over hurdles and narrow winner after 7 months off at Ffos Las in November. Off since but can go well fresh, though ground may be quicker than ideal.	22546/1-	Ned Fox T Symonds	8	71.7kg	4 3/1
2nd	9	—	I Am Spider Man (G) H A 2-time hurdles winner for Charles Byrnes at Sligo in 2024. Has struggled for different trainers after, however.	7-22337	James Bowen B T Murphy	9	70.8kg	15 14/1
