Sedgefield Place 6 Preview | 9th October

13.58 – Fairlight Studios Maiden Hurdle 

FELIX SUMMUS shaped well when runner-up on debut before returning from over a two-year absence to finish midfield at Downpatrick. He is interesting on hurdle debut, while fellow debutant in this sphere SEA LEGEND has some decent form on the Flat and can be shortlisted.

Tips: FELIX SUMMUS, SEA LEGEND

14.28 – Vickers.Bet Proud To Support British Racing Handicap Chase

With Sean Og declared an absentee, this can go the way of CHEMICAL WARFARE. He’s won three of his last five starts and has more to come over this distance. An impressive winner over C&D last time out, he can double his tally at this venue.

Tips: CHEMICAL WARFARE 

14.58 – Paul Ferguson’s Jumpers To Follow Handicap Hurdle

BELLBIRD scored for this stable back in May and has remained in good form since, including when runner-up at Bangor last month. She is one of the former horses in the race, with her stable going well too, so she should be competitive.

Tips: BELLBIRD

15.28 – Go Racing With Vickers.Bet Handicap Chase

JET OF DREAMS won over C&D last month, following up his previous Hereford success, and despite being hit with a big hike in the handicap, the hat trick could well be on the cards. While the iron remains hot, he is the one to beat.

Tips: JET OF DREAMS, GOOD LORD

15.58 – Paxtons No1 CaseIH Dealer In UK&Ireland Handicap Hurdle

CAWTHORNE TICKER returned as a comfortable winner over C&D last week and cannot be opposed with more to offer. That was undoubtedly a career-best performance, and the way he travelled into the contest before pulling clear was impressive, so he can follow up.

Tips: CAWTHORNE TICKER

16.28 – Vickers.Bet Mares’ Open NH Flat Race

None of those with experience set a tall standard, so it could pay to take a chance on RIVIERA WALK, who is very well bred and represents a yard that has enjoyed plenty of success with bumper debutants. Another newcomer to note is JOTO.

Tips: RIVIERA WALK, JOTO
