HEATHER D YAXLEY MAIDEN STEEPLE 3900m Track: HVY8 True |

|---|---|---|---|---|

OUR DAYMO (4) has shown a heap of ability over hurdles, and will be making his steeple debut here. He will eventually be a top jumper in this role and should get the job done. BRUCIE (1) has been so disappointing, mixing his jumping and dropping out. He is so much better than that and is worth one more chance. THE REPUBLICAN (6) won his maiden hurdle 2 starts back and then was a brave runner-up on the flat in an amateur riders' race at Woodville 6 days ago. He is rock-hard fit and is ready to make a bright start to his steeplechasing career. Stick with him. VERRY FLASH (7) is a very accomplished hurdler who is making his steeplechasing debut. He has been a good performer for a long time and deserves plenty of respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: Our Daymo should be the one to beat.
