Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle Tips

LAURINA arrives as one of the big Irish hopes of the meeting. It’s easy to see why on the pair of demolition jobs we have witnessed from her so far. Willie Mullins has a perfect record in this race to defend having won both renewals, he should make if 3/3 now. Laurina’s main danger may come from her own stablemate Salsaretta who comes with a tall reputation. She hasn’t been seen in competitive action since September 2016 but had shown some smart form in France. There isn’t much between Cap Soleil and Angels Antics at the weights on their two clashes, the latter is a monstrous price if she can neaten up her jumping.
