Huntingdon Race 4

Lady Protectress Mares' Chase (Listed) (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $92,250

BRIDES HILL (1) won this twelve months ago and can defend her title. The trainer is enjoying a fine recent streak and his previous G2-winning mare can reverse recent Doncaster form with LA RENOMMEE (2) who is the main danger after landing the just noted Listed Yorkshire Silver Vase Mares Chase at Doncaster. HAUTURIERE (3) disappointed after nearly a year off tackling the G3 John & Chich Fowler Memorial Irish EBF Mares Chase at Fairyhouse. Holds some solid novice chase form. Improving mare TELEPATHIQUE (4) rounds out the shortlist.

Last outing favourite; won by 9 len Fakenham on January 19 over 4240m defeating Moviddy with 77.5kg at $3.50 in a steeplechase. Race before finished second of 8 runners at Warwick in the LR on December 12 over 4000m, 7 len behind Cherie D'am carrying 70kg at $6.50. This appears outside her grasp. In form but others have better credentials.
