Analyis of the race

A decent looking handicap hurdle but it was taken in stunning fashion by OUMEYADE, having his first outing for his new trainer and wearing a tongue tie for the first time, as he never came off the bridle up the home straight to score effortlessly. Connection now have the best part of two weeks to run him again under a penalty as the handicapper is not going to be kind in reassessing him and he faces a hefty hike for this. So expect him to be out next weekend somewhere and it will be a surprise if he is not able to follow up on this evidence.

Nayodabayo is greatly flattered to get so close to the easy winner but he has gone well fresh in the past and there is no reason to believe that he was below his best on his first outing for five months.

Hoh Nelson has not won for over three years but, on what he showed there, he maybe up to winning something when not so highly tried.
