Verdict

HOW'S ELLIE made a much better fist of it on her second go over hurdles here 3 weeks ago and can do better still as she gains experience. She looks the way to go in a thin maiden hurdle. Texas Red and Crystal Mariner are a couple of the other likely players.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Fractions

The times recorded during the race; with timing starting just past the gate or when the gates open, then parroted for the quarter, half, three-quarters etc. Used as an indication of ability and speed.

Blinkers

A hood worn on a horse’s head to limit side vision, which can improve concentration. Blinkers are added or removed to relax a horse or give it more focus.

Rabbit

Also known as a pacemaker; this is a horse with no expected chance of winning but is used to prompt a quick pace on the front end of the race to the benefit of a stablemate who is a closer.
