Race Tip

LE BEAU MADRIK (3) impressed scoring on hurdle debut over 2m1f at this track. Further improvement likely advancing in distance and he looks hard to beat. Leading contender. EAGLES REPRIEVE (2) resumes after two months off and the fresh record reads strongly. Opened last campaign with a solid second attempting 2m at Kelso and could be in the mix. Holds claims. BUDDAH CASTLE (1) arrives in form after following a point-to-point win with a narrow maiden hurdle success tackling 2m4f at Sedgefield. Reliable profile and must be respected. LOULOU MADRIK (5) bounced back to post a 2. 25L second over course and distance. Warrants consideration.
