Bangor 17:10

Bangor-On-Dee Gents Evening Novices’ Hurdle (GBB Race)

 Winner £4,225, 2nd £1,944, 3rd £972, 4th £486, 5th £242

 4yo+, 13 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 123y , SOFT, Good to soft in places on the Hurdle course (GoingStick: Chase 4.8; Hurdle 6.1) (Watered) (Rail movements: 5.10, 7.10, 7.40 & 8.10 +76yds, 5.40

1. Groovy Blue – Best Odds: 9/2Bet with bet365

Struck gold on his most recent run, showing grit and a touch of class to outstay rivals. Though previously inconsistent, his recent win suggests he could be coming to hand now. Another bold bid looks feasible if in the same mood.


2. I’m A Lumberjack – Best Odds: 9/4Bet with Unibet

Progressive in this sphere and rarely runs a bad race. Wasn’t disgraced when third last time after falling the time before, and brings strong credentials into this. Likely to be thereabouts if reproducing his best.


3. Kahavari – Best Odds: 13/2Bet with Betvictor

Has been in the mix a few times, placing in competitive fields, but can throw in the odd mistake. His best effort gives him a shot, though consistency hasn’t always been his strong suit.


**4. Paddys Policy – NON-RUNNER

Withdrawn from this event and will take no part.


5. Ronnies Rules – Best Odds: 15/8Bet with bet365

Undefeated when staying upright, with three impressive victories sandwiched around a couple of non-completions. Looks a big player on raw ability and could dominate if allowed an easy lead, especially under a 5lb claimer.


6. Bear Market – Best Odds: 13/2Bet with BetMGM

A mixed bag of form to date. Won his first two starts but hasn’t looked the same horse since. A return to earlier form would put him in the conversation, but hard to fully trust at present.


7. King Gris – Best Odds: 25/1Bet with bet365

Limited promise so far, with his best showing being a distant third. The drop in class might help, but it’s difficult to build a strong case for him without significant improvement.


8. Off To Alabama – Best Odds: 33/1Bet with Unibet

Won a modest contest a while ago but has struggled since then. On recent evidence, he has plenty to prove, and others appear far more convincing.


9. Troop Ship – Best Odds: 66/1Bet with BetMGM

Beaten out of sight on debut and has shown nothing to suggest he’s ready to trouble the judge. Would be a huge surprise if involved in the finish.


10. Annies Gold – Best Odds: 66/1Bet with bet365

Another who has yet to get seriously involved in her races. Slight step forward last time, but more is needed to trouble the leading contenders in a field of this depth.


11. Another Pearl – Best Odds: 20/1Bet with Betvictor

Two unremarkable runs on her record. Might be capable of minor improvement but remains difficult to fancy against stronger, more battle-hardened rivals.


12. Just Tell Robyn – Best Odds: 33/1Bet with BetMGM

Offered little on sole start. Yard is in decent form, but it would require a giant leap forward to trouble the main players. Best watched for now.


13. Star Of Hoiho – Best Odds: 33/1Bet with Unibet

Returned from a break with a below-par effort. One-time bumper winner but has done little since returning to timber. Has more to prove than most.

Verdict

It’s hard to ignore the winning record of Ronnies Rules, who has looked a real prospect when completing. His jumping will be tested, but he seems to possess the most raw talent. I’m A Lumberjack should go close and offers a more consistent profile, while Groovy Blue could build on his last win and snatch a place if the front two falter.

Bangor 17:40

Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Novices’ Handicap Chase

 Winner £4,225, 2nd £1,944, 3rd £972, 4th £486, 5th £242

 5yo+, 10 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 1f 77y , HEAVY (GoingStick: Hurdle 3.2, Chase 3.1) (Fence 8 omitted for all chase) (Rail Movements: 1.55, 2.25 & 2.55 +120yds, 3.30, 4.05 & 4.35 +12yds and 5.1

1. Sweet Street – 14/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Returned to chasing with a poor effort after a hard-earned win the time before. Finds himself back in calmer waters but will need to bounce back after pulling up last time. Dangerous if putting it all together, but recent form makes him a risky proposition.


2. Skiffle Man – 5/1 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

Remains a maiden under rules but has placed efforts that read well in this company. Trainer and jockey combination have a fine record in this type of race, and a clean round could put him right in the mix. Should go close with minimal fuss.


3. Socialiser – 20/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Hasn’t shown much since returning from a long absence and was pulled up on latest run. Clearly has ability if he rediscovers earlier promise but arrives here with questions to answer. Hard to recommend without clear signs of a revival.


4. Iron d’Ex – 14/1 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

A few fair efforts peppered among some lesser ones, and arrives here needing to prove stamina over this trip. Often gives the impression there’s something there but has yet to deliver fully. A watching brief might be best.


5. Cullenwaine – 6/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Wasn’t disgraced in a stronger contest last time and has already scored at this level. Has a workable mark and if repeating that earlier winning form, could easily go well. Danger to all if finding rhythm early.


6. Mrs Tabitha – 7/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Has been busy of late and continues to hit the frame without managing to win. Reliable type who often travels well into her races, though finishing effort can sometimes falter. Each-way angle if the pace collapses late.


7. Rock On Rita – 7/2 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

Returned from a long layoff to land a minor contest in impressive fashion. Connections will be hoping she can build on that, and her winning form makes her one of the more attractive profiles in the field. Very much respected.


8. Bridget Mary – 5/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Has strung together a series of solid runs, regularly hitting the board. Hasn’t managed to score since switching to fences, but her consistency earns her a look here. Should be involved if jumping holds up under pressure.


9. Whynotnowroy – 10/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Capable on his best day, but not always reliable. Likes to race prominently and could stick on for minor money if left alone up front. Will need everything to fall right to grab the prize, but not without hope.


10. Higgs – 11/2 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

Veteran who showed signs of life when finishing runner-up on latest start. Has a low weight and comes into this with renewed purpose. Can make his presence felt if the race turns into a stamina test.

Verdict

Rock On Rita looked revitalised when returning to action with a win and can back that up now with conditions to suit. Bridget Mary remains a consistent operator and deserves a place in the reckoning, while Higgs appeals as a staying type who could sneak into the frame off a featherweight.

Bangor 18:10

Bangor-On-Dee Occasion Package Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

 Winner £7,922, 2nd £3,645, 3rd £1,823, 4th £912, 5th £455

 5yo+, 5 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 4f 72y , HEAVY (GoingStick: Hurdle 3.2, Chase 3.1) (Fence 8 omitted for all chase) (Rail Movements: 1.55, 2.25 & 2.55 +120yds, 3.30, 4.05 & 4.35 +12yds and 5.1

1. Grey Skies – 10/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Held his own in stronger company last term but has failed to fully ignite this season. He’s now down to a workable mark and the booking of a capable 5lb claimer helps. A return to his best would make him interesting.


2. Camarrate – 8/1 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

After winning on seasonal debut, his form has tailed off sharply. Still lightly raced and back on a track where his trainer often excels, he could bounce back if the first-time cheekpieces sharpen him up.


3. Don Rafael – 4/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Scored nicely two starts ago and wasn’t disgraced since. Carries solid claims on the formbook and has a useful 7lb claimer aboard. Could prove dangerous if given a patient ride in what might turn into a tactical affair.


4. Tchoupinminzac – 8/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Three solid efforts since returning from a long absence. Appears to be building toward something and could be nearing a breakthrough. Has each-way potential if continuing his upward trend.


5. Juan Bermudez – 25/1 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

Has struggled for any real consistency and arrives off the back of several poor performances. Hard to recommend based on recent evidence, but if the blinkers and cheekpieces combo works again, he could surprise.


6. Tommie Gun – 10/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Looked like one with potential earlier this season but has disappointed of late, pulling up twice in succession. Will need a confidence-boosting run and perhaps better ground, but worth monitoring for future interest.


7. Lune De La Mer – 4/1 [Best Odds: Betvictor]

Was strong in the market last time out and wasn’t beaten far. That came in a better race and he now looks well treated here. Connections are adept at placing their horses, and he could be primed to strike.


8. Gwennie May Star – 7/2 [Best Odds: bet365]

Had things fall her way when successful two outings back but couldn’t back it up next time. Still learning the game and trainer’s team is in form. May bounce back, though others appeal slightly more on consistency.


9. Eagles Gold – 12/1 [Best Odds: Unibet]

Yet to really put his stamp on a race but has shown minor improvement over hurdles recently. Still looks a work in progress and may need a drop into weaker company before becoming a serious betting proposition.


10. Razzo Italiano – 12/1 [Best Odds: bet365]

Dual winner earlier in the season but seems to have gone off the boil since. Well handicapped on that previous success, but needs to turn around his form quickly. Could go close if bouncing back to his best.

Verdict

Lune De La Mer appears to be on the verge of a big run and can take advantage of this slightly easier assignment. Don Rafael continues to run creditably and holds strong claims with the benefit of a valuable claim. Tchoupinminzac could be the one for each-way backers, as his recent consistency suggests a win may not be far away.

Bangor 18:40

Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Mares’ Maiden Hurdle (Herring Queen Qualifier) (GBB Race)

 Winner £4,225, 2nd £1,944, 3rd £972, 4th £486, 5th £242

 4yo+, 5 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 145y , HEAVY (GoingStick: Hurdle 3.2, Chase 3.1) (Fence 8 omitted for all chase) (Rail Movements: 1.55, 2.25 & 2.55 +120yds, 3.30, 4.05 & 4.35 +12yds and 5.1

Forcetoreckonwith – 10/3 (Best odds with bet365)

Showed plenty of ability in the point-to-point sphere, finishing second on debut before winning convincingly last October. Makes her first start under rules and could prove to be a major contender if handling the switch to hurdles.

Getaways Gift – 8/1 (Best odds with Unibet)

Produced a solid second-place finish last season but failed to build on that effort in two subsequent runs. Has the potential to improve but needs to step forward to trouble the leading market principals.

High As Hope – 16/1 (Best odds with BetVictor)

Hasn’t shown much in her four outings so far, with a best finish of seventh. Needs to find significant improvement to be competitive at this level, and others make stronger appeal.

I’ve Madeupmymind – Evs (Best odds with bet365)

Has been consistent this season, placing in three consecutive races. Looks the most solid of those with hurdles experience and is likely to be in contention again. Should be in the mix if continuing her progress.

Scar Bridge – 12/1 (Best odds with Unibet)

Started her career with a promising win in a bumper but has failed to complete two of her last three starts over hurdles. If she can put those jumping errors behind her, she has the ability to feature, but she comes with risks attached.

Verdict

Forcetoreckonwith has shown ability in point-to-points and could take to hurdling well enough to make a winning debut under rules. I’ve Madeupmymind has solid experience and should pose the biggest threat, while Scar Bridge has the ability to compete if she puts in a clear round.

 4yo+, 11 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 1f 77y , GOOD

Junker DAllier (7/1, Bet365)
With an impressive sequence of wins last season, Junker DAllier is a capable runner who could make a strong impact. She has the stamina for this distance and could be well in the mix if she finds her stride.

One More Stroke (8/1, Betvictor)
Coming off a promising season, One More Stroke has shown his ability to hold his own. With his steady performances, he might stand a solid chance of placing if he continues his current form.

I’m Ravenous (5/1, Unibet)
After a recent hurdle win, I’m Ravenous steps into the chase category with potential. Known for his sharp jumps, he could be primed for a bold showing here.

Baltray (15/2, Bet365)
Baltray has shown promise with previous strong finishes. This gelding may offer some value if he keeps up his consistent form, especially over a longer distance.

Micro Millions (20/1, Unibet)
Although not the front-runner, Micro Millions has often been a steady performer. With a strong ride, he could find himself in the mix for a minor placing.

Immortal Fame (33/1, Betvictor)
Immortal Fame has yet to find top form this season, but his experience at this distance might benefit him. If he bounces back, he could land a surprise spot.

Valens Bruyee (8/1, Bet365)
This runner has shown consistent improvement, capturing a few wins. Valens Bruyee could push for a solid performance if he maintains this upward trajectory.

Zestful Hope (20/1, Unibet)
Zestful Hope has been an under-the-radar performer but has proven capable of staying in races. A strong effort here could see him finish in a competitive position.

Icare Grandchamp (5/1, Betvictor)
With a recent victory under his belt, Icare Grandchamp is a notable challenger. If he carries over his form, he’s expected to be among the leaders.

Billytherealbigred (4/1, Bet365)
A consistent performer with a string of wins, Billytherealbigred enters in great form. His solid pace could make him a favorite to watch in this lineup.

Iron D’Ex (15/2, Betvictor)
Iron D’Ex recently returned to form with a win. If he repeats that effort, he has a reasonable chance of making a mark here.

Hawkseye View (20/1, Unibet)
Though Hawkseye View has had limited impact lately, he has shown capability in longer races. A focused performance could see him sneak into the top spots.

Verdict

I’m Ravenous steps into this chase category with momentum from a recent hurdle win, marking him as a top pick. Icare Grandchamp and Billytherealbigred also bring solid form and could challenge strongly. Our choice is I’m Ravenous, as his recent form and jumping skill make him well-suited for a competitive performance here.

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 7f 32y , GOOD

Im A Lumberjack (3/1, Bet365)
Im A Lumberjack ended last season on a high with a win and is known for consistency. With proven ability over this distance, he could deliver another strong run.

Professor Klump (12/1, Betvictor)
This five-year-old has shown mixed form but has displayed potential in previous races. If he stays focused, he may surprise in this race.

Libor Lad (4/1, Unibet)
Known for a recent solid run, Libor Lad has good form and could be in contention if he maintains his pace. He remains a notable competitor in this lineup.

Mutual Respect (3/1, Bet365)
Coming off a recent win, Mutual Respect has shown excellent promise. With strong stamina, he’s expected to be a key player in the field.

Johnny Mac (8/1, Betvictor)
Johnny Mac has had a successful string of finishes in the past, though his recent form dipped. If he can regain his stride, he may challenge for a place.

Copernic Du Mazet (7/2, Bet365)
A consistent four-year-old, Copernic Du Mazet has been on the edge of a breakthrough. A focused performance could see him finish strong in this chase.

Orbys River (14/1, Unibet)
While not a recent top finisher, Orbys River has shown glimpses of potential. An impressive effort here could give him a shot at the minor spots.

Man Of The North (33/1, Bet365)
This veteran has struggled for form but remains experienced in the handicap ranks. He would need a significant boost to secure a strong finish.

Connolly (100/1, Betvictor)
As a long shot, Connolly has yet to find his footing but could surprise if he improves markedly. This six-year-old faces a tough challenge but could land a minor place.

Verdict

Im A Lumberjack has shown consistency and might continue his winning streak. Mutual Respect and Copernic Du Mazet also have the form to contend for top spots. Our choice is Im A Lumberjack for his reliable performances and ability to handle the course distance.
