Bangor On Dee Race 8

Family Funday On 16Th May 'Junior' NH Flat Race (GBB Race)

Prize Money: $12,915

Expensive purchase LONGLANDS (7) represents powerful connections. Well related to several good winners including for this stable and is part of a family Nicky Henderson knows well. Bold show on debut would not be a shock. JETZET (5) wasn't disgraced debuting at Doncaster last month. Can take a big step forward. Was supported on that occasion and worth giving another chance. TIDE IS TURNING (10) caught the eye when a debutante at Kempton Park last month. One to take very seriously with that experience under his belt. ENYA (12) brings plenty of experience. Ran fourth at Newton Abbot a fortnight ago. Interesting.

Comes off a 55 day let-up. Last start finished fifth of 10 starters at Hereford on February 22 over 3200m, on slow going 18 len behind Tythingman with 71kg at $4.50. Before that finished 15th of 16 starters at Cheltenham in the LR on January 1 over 3400m, 92 len behind Solly's Gold with 70kg at $29. Gets a chance to win. Rates highly on best form and is expected to prove hard to beat.

Is second-up today and making a debut in a jumps race. Last start finished third in a small field at Doncaster on March 13 over 3300m, 6 len behind Port Isaac with 71kg at $1.80. Likely improver going over the jumps this time.

Was at very big odds at debut, finished eighth of 11 starters at Southwell on February 18 over 3200m, slow track; 30 len behind Midnight Jukebox with 63kg at $81. Have to look elsewhere on the back of that.
