We have three runners at Uttoxeter on Sunday starting with Mauritian Bolt in the novice handicap hurdle. He was running a nice race at Hexham before a mistake at the second last cost him his momentum at the bottom of the hill. He is a little inconsistent but shows glimmers of promise on occasion.
The two mares follow in the next race, both making their hurdling debuts. Switch Partner is from a nice family and it looks like a step up to two and a half miles should suit her. She may need the experience as her jumping is not a fluent as I would like to see at home. Silver Coin ran very green on her bumper debut – which did not come as a surprise – and I would expect her to be a little green again on Sunday. Her jumping at home is very good and she will be suited by the step up in trip.
