Race Tip

MONDOUI'BOY (3) resumed with a 2m5f maiden hurdle win at Ludlow under Ben Jones. That was the first run for the Ben Pauling yard and he can build on the bright return. Holds leading claims. STARZAND (4) has been consistent. Attempting 2m at Ffos Las when placed 12L third over 2m4 1/2f at Leicester most recently. In the mix. ETNA BIANCO (1) was fifth in the G1 Challow Novices Hurdle tackling 2m4 1/2f at Newbury most recently. Drops in grade and can make presence felt. Warrants serious consideration. CATCHINTSAVO (2) ran second at Hereford in a then won by a neck contesting a 2m5f event at Ludlow most recently. Progressive and may feature again. Worth including.
