Premier League Offers At Rhino.Bet Handicap Hurdle

Weather: Light rain

Form: 222-25

Last run: 21 days

W: 11st 13lb

4 yo Gelding

OR: 109

Form & Verdict
Runner-up on six of his eight hurdle starts; below par at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) last time but ran well when runner-up there (2m, good) earlier last month; also effective on soft/good to soft ground and today's step up in trip is worth a go; blinkers (in which he's run well several times) replace the visor adopted the last twice; not written off.

Quirky customer who doesn't tend to find much when it matters and is placed far more often than he wins; ran well when third at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) last month and remains on a workable mark, but is very frustrating.

Form & Verdict
Returned from a long absence with a big-field handicap win at Exeter (2m2f, good) last month, and he won over 2m4f on good to soft ground in 2022; up 7lb last time but this unexposed 7yo is open to further improvement.

6 yo Gelding

OR: 109

Form & Verdict
Pulled up on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m3f, soft) in March but was an entirely different proposition on good ground on his reappearance there (2m3f) last month, winning easily; a 9lb rise may not stop this unexposed 6yo if today's conditions are in his favour.

Came from poor position to win by 7l on chasing debut at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) in June 2024 and returned from long absence with good second over hurdles at Worcester (2m7f, good) in August, where he travelled much more sweetly; it's hard to tell what mood he'll be in here but he could still have significant potential over fences.

Ridden on all six starts by Fergus Gregory; won maiden hurdle at Lingfield (2m3f, heavy) in February 2022 and followed up in Chepstow novice (2m7f, good) that April; off since but trainer can ready one after an absence and the betting could be informative on handicap debut (one of two for yard).
