We just have 4 runners in Cartmel today.

Kicking off the afternoon is LOCH CUAN in the 2m6f maiden hurdle. Placed on both starts over hurdles to date, he looks to be improving with each run and should appreciate the step up in trip here again today. This looks like a good opportunity for him to get on the scoreboard with Sean Bowen in the saddle.

In the mares handicap hurdle we run DUNSY ROCK. She didn’t disgrace herself when finishing 5th in a listed contest at Killarney a fortnight ago and could run a big race here on her handicap debut. Sean Bowen rides.

In the 3m1f mares handicap hurdle we send out PENNY PERFECT. Fresh from a winter break, she has not finished out of the placings on her last 3 starts and looks to be an out and out stayer, however, she does have to carry top weight here today on what is her handicap debut. Sean Bowen rides.

Our final runner of the day is THEHAIRYFELLA in the 3m1f handicap chase. A summer racing specialist, he is another who is having his first run back after a winter break. He was third over course and distance last June off the same mark and has strong each way claims here again today. Sean Bowen rides.
