Market Rasen Place 6 Preview | 28th September
14.53 Green Imp Mares’ Maiden Hurdle
Having scored on her debut prior to finishing runner-up in a pair of Listed events, LISTENTOYOURHEART was last seen taking fifth of 16 in the Grade 2 Nickel Coin Mares’ National Hunt Flat Race at Aintree on her final outing and should be hard to beat on hurdles bow.
Tips: Listentoyourheart
15.30 Solar Star Juvenile Hurdle
LIAM SWAGGER placed five times on the Flat and could be a serious force here if translating that form to this sphere. MODEL APPROACH has also displayed decent form on the Flat and is another to note on hurdles debut. Either way, this race should prove to be informative.
Tips: Liam Swagger & Model Approach
16.05 Lincoln Lager Handicap Chase
ANOTHER DAY OUT only scrambled home to open her account last time out, but this race looks no tougher, and she should make a bold bid to follow up. SAFE DESTINATION has gone well after a break, and his stable is in good form, so he’s another one to consider.
Tips: Another Day Out & Safe Destination
16.35 Ferry Ales Brewery Prelude Handicap Hurdle
OUR CHAMP won on last season’s return and concluded his last campaign with an excellent third at Cheltenham, having landed the Sussex Champion Hurdle on his penultimate start. He should be raring to go on his reappearance, while PISGAH PIKE, who often runs well here, is worth a second look.
Tips: Our Champ & Pisgah Pike
17.10 Nineteen Twenty Pour Handicap Chase
FRANCKY DU BERLAIS is a dual C&D winner off higher marks, and the two-time Summer Plate hero has fallen to an attractive mark. The trough will suit and his stable can hardly be in better form, so the veteran of the party is fancied to roll back the years and bag another success at his favourite hunting ground.
Tips: Francky Du Berlais
17.45 RyePA Handicap Hurdle
OPERA KING has made the frame on two of his three starts and should be thereabouts with more to come. BANNISTER won’t mind the return to softer ground, having shown a liking for it when formerly in France, and could go well at decent odds.
Tips: Opera King & Bannister
