Ladies Day Dress Spectacular Handicap Hurdle
2m 6f 151y
Going: Good to Soft
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneWest Lawn flourished when stepped up in distance on her handicap bow at Hexham and could go well despite a 4lb rise, while Irish import Half Shot's best recent effort came over 2m5f at Limerick and the longer trip could help. The Jad Factor won a lower-grade race than this at Newcastle but was beaten a long way over C&D earlier in the season and is back to the same mark, and preference is for LISSEN TO THE LADY. Sandy Forster's mare won over this track and trip in February and backed that up with a solid effort over slightly shorter at Ayr. Staying on well at the finish that day, she could improve back at this trip.
