HEREFORD, 6 November (Good, good to firm in places) 3m1f44yds (+36yds) 0-110 Mares’ Handicap Chase (class 4)
DO YOU THINK had made a successful chasing debut in this corresponding contest in 2022 (good to soft), and a 2l second this time around likely rates the best effort since by Emma Lavelle’s daughter of So You Think. Then as now, however, hers was a round blighted by mistakes, and it would be too reductive to suggest the quickish surface coerced her into errors given she’d crashed around Ffos Las on soft the last time she’d been seen, ultimately unseating. A mark currently 5lb above that winning one does look to have a little wriggle room to it strictly on the form shown over fences to date, but the impression very much remains that her progress in this sphere could accelerate sharply once the errors are snuffed out. Keep a look out for the first time a concentration aid is reached for, and back accordingly.
