Race Tip

INDEEVAR BLEU (3) is racing consistently with three wins and two placed efforts in last five starts including an impressive 5. 5L course and distance handicap hurdle victory on Boxing Day. Major player. JOYEUSE (5) represents notable connections. Placed a respectable third in the County Premier Handicap Hurdle four weeks ago. Last victory came 14 months ago. Expected to challenge. HOT FUSS (12) finished runner-up on most recent appearance in the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockey’s Handicap Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Can go one better. WELLINGTON ARCH (7) is not discounted after a 1. 25L success at Uttoxeter.
