Haydock Park Race 1

Watch On Racing Tv Mares' Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $27,675

SOLEIL D'ARIZONA (4) looked a sure-fire future winner when second on hurdling debut at Exeter in October. Pulled up at Wetherby shortly afterwards. Can get back on track here. JOKERS 'N' CLOWNS (2) produced a career-best finishing second in a Newton Abbot maiden hurdle over 4336m nine days ago. That was her stable debut so there could be more to come. Shorter trip looks ideal. Key danger. SUSIESPARKLE (5) has regressed in three hurdle starts. Fit from running on the flat. Point-to-point winner FORCETORECKONWITH (1) wears a first-time hood having been too keen on hurdling debut.
