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, 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 and half a furlong race will still be inexperienced over hurdles and almost certainly improve for the racecourse experience that they gain today.

PLAY SMARTER
RUBAUD looked in need of the experience when pitched straight into the Grade 2 Adonis Juvenile Hurdle at Kempton on his stable/hurdling debut but, having been a useful performer on the Flat in France, he can leave that first effort well behind returning for his in-form yard. Dancing Harry could be the biggest threat, ahead of hurdling-debutante Nina’s Field.
