Race Description
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 in National Hunt racing, be it a gelding or a mare, it simply means that they have yet to win a race over obstacles, in this case hurdles. Many of the runners aged four-years-old and upwards in this two miles race will still be inexperienced over hurdles and almost certainly improve for the racecourse experience that they gain today.

TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful on Flat, stays 10.5f, back to form last time following another breathing operation. Tongue tie retained for hurdle debut and should be up to making his presence felt in a race like this. TFRHHHHI BHA-
