At the lovely Bangor-On-Dee, we're looking at the 14:20 Race 2 Fyrnwy Equine Clinic Novices' Handicap Hurdle over a distance of 2m 3f 123y. The going is reported as Good, making conditions nice and fair for a spirited hurdle. First up, we have Kenmya, the 5-year-old mare, trained by the notable D Skelton with Harry Skelton taking the reins. With a live price of 6.5, she's sitting in that value sweet spot. Although her recent form does not shine, with zero wins from five races in the last 720 days, the team has a solid strike rate, particularly the jockey, Harry Skelton, boasting a 56% win rate over the last 14 days. The Skelton duo generally performs decently, and given the horse’s highest rating of 81, she could be set to break the form slump. Facing her will be Jailbird, who's a year younger and piloted by Danny McMenamin with training handled by T Collier. This filly is on the long shot with a price of 23, hinting at less favorable outcomes. Her forms mirror somewhat that of Kenmya, showing no wins in slightly more active race days but excelling in none. From what the numbers tell us, this outing might not turn the tide for her. Then we've got Make Sunshine, who's been saddled by Conor Ring and prepared for the race by R Potter. Priced at 12, making her a tempting outsider. She's got a smidge more going for her than Jailbird, especially with three distance races in the last 720 days though she found no wins there. Similar to Jailbird, her strike rates are not particularly endearing. Among the other runners, Soldier In Mayo pops out with a short price of 3.75, and with some decent backing, could be one to keep an eye on today. However, Kenmya, despite some bumpy form, does come from a team with a solid reputation and some streaks of brilliance in the past. With Harry Skelton aboard, she might just be inspired enough to take the lead in this mix. Remember, it's all in good fun—place your bets sensibly and may Lady Luck not gallop away from your slips today. And remember, bet responsibly!
