Hereford Race 2

Silvershine Turf Services Maiden Hurdle (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $18,450

DOUGLAS HYDE (2) looks set to finally shed the maiden tag after several positive performances. Last seen finishing runner-up at Haydock Park and connections find an appropriate assignment. Hard to fault. SEANIECON (3) made a pleasing debut for the stable four weeks ago when second in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow. Yard yet to get going this season however this five-year-old still warrants plenty of respect. BRESILIANT (1) stepped forward last time when fourth at Leicester three weeks ago. Needs a career best and looks to be third in line. SHUILE WARRIOR (4) didn't offer any immediate hope at Ludlow. Best watched

Third-up today. First-up ran on from midfield; ran last in a small field at Haydock Park on December 3 over 4900m, 15 len behind Western Monkey carrying 68.5kg at $126. Second-up finished fourth of 8 starters at Leicester on January 20 over 4100m, on a wet track; 22 len behind Ubatuba with 72kg at $51. Needs to improve sharply if troubling this field.

Racing well. Resumes off a 43 day letup. Last outing finished second of 7 runners at Haydock Park on December 30 over 4900m, 0.8 len behind Kiss My Face with 71.5kg at $4.50. Start before sat on speed throughout then finished third of 7 starters at Chepstow on November 21 over 3900m, slow track; 18 len behind Le Frimeur with 71.5kg at $4.50. Go close. Among the winning hopes in this line-up.
