Should be well handicapped but he looks cold as ice at the minute and has the most to prove of these. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won over C&D in 2023 and is well handicapped on some of last year's form; took step back in right direction when third of five at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in April but her run at Southwell a fortnight later was disappointing and she takes on a couple of in-form mares here. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Has won twice over hurdles, the second a C&D novice handicap at this meeting in 2024; some fair runs over fences last term, but has yet to find his form this season. |
25/1 |

3rd 2 |
17th Mar 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Did not fire at Uttoxeter last month and is now 0-5 over fences but his clear second at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) two starts ago was a good effort and he'll be suited by the forecast good ground here. |
3/1 |

8th Feb 2025 Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Sent chasing over 3m+ for last four starts, beaten a nose on first occasion and good second with first-time headgear at Catterick on latest; that requires respect but worse than good to soft ground would be a worry. |

Verdict
For Gina produced a good performance over C&D six weeks ago and could still have more to offer but HOBB’S DELIGHT is effectively only 1lb higher than when battling on well to force a dead-heat over 2m3f on his recent handicap debut at Fontwell, and his pedigree suggests today’s longer trip may unlock significant further improvement.[Chris Wilson]
