The term ‘maiden’ inspires thoughts of damsels in distress but in horse racing terms it takes on a different meaning When a horse is referred to as a maiden, be it a colt or a filly, it simply means that they have yet to win a race Many of the runners aged four-years-old and upwards in this two miles, six furlongs 31 yard race will still be inexperienced over hurdles and almost certainly improve for the racecourse experience that they gain today.
