IDAHO VALLEY rates just the pick of these on form and on the back of wind surgery and with this longest trip he’s tackled to date another plus he edges the vote from Dan Skelton’s hurdling newcomer Lady Kluck. Mohawk Chief and Moonset both need factoring into this open-looking maiden hurdle too. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.IDAHO VALLEY (IRE) 2.LADY

Official equine ambassador for Market Rasen Racecourse
Hally’s Kitchen retired in 2020 following an unsuccessful National Hunt career while in training with Justin Landy, she ran nine times under rules and once in a point-to-point without troubling the judge. She is now owned by Samantha Hunt and is excelling in the show ring!
Hally (as she is known) has competed in several high profile shows including the RoR finals at Hickstead and in an SEIB Racehorse to Riding Horse qualifier at Burghley Horse Trials.
Samantha describes Hally as kind and laid-back - she loves cuddles and being groomed!

2024: NO CORRESPONDING RACE LASTYEAR
HOLD UP LA COLMINE: Following its run on 17/1/2025 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed.

REALISATION had made a promising start overfences before failingto meet expectations faced with more demanding fences at a more demanding track at Cheltenham but she can bounce back with a bang back down in class. Hold Up La Colmine showed something to work on both starts over fences after a lengthy absence and rates the main threat ahead of likely front runner Cartonne.

RUMOURSAREFLYING remains a long-standing maiden but he’s unexposed in this sphere and gets the nod after his eye-catching third at Huntingdon. Denemethy has improved for the switch to fences this season and rates a serious threat down in class.

JUBILANT won in commanding style at Huntingdon last month and it’s likely we haven’t seen the best of him yet. He can follow up Coastal Rock and Belvedere Blast rate the principal dangers.
