Verdict

ON THE BAYOU may have been thwarted by the longest-priced winner in British history on his hurdling debut over C&D in December, but the form hasn't worked out at all badly in behind and he's fancied to go one better having been given plenty of time to get over such a gruelling race. Limier d'arthel was well supported prior to departing early on his first outing over hurdles at Huntingdon and remains one to keep an eye on, with Can't Resist It also feared back at a more suitable level.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

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.

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.
