Bangor On Dee Race 4

Bangor-On-Dee Memberships Now On Sale Ebf Junior 'National Hunt' Hurdle (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $18,450

The market will require serious attention in this field of newcomers. AGAFAY (1) makes most appeal on paper. Gains the assistance of Sean Bowen from the saddle and is a half-brother to the very useful Nassalam. Appears the one to beat. ROCKSON PIEL (5) hails from the Harry Derham stable who are becoming known for their exploits with three year old jumpers. Related to dual G2 winner Steel Ally. Worth a close look. NOTRE JACQUES (4) starts out for the Jane Williams yard who also have success in this sphere. Enters the mix. FIKA (3) and ROYAL CASTLE (6) are others for whom a first-time-out victory wouldn't be a surprise.
