First up, Reach For The Moon is stepping out at Market Rasen in the 19:35 race, navigating the twists of the 2m 125y Mark De Triomphe Handicap Hurdle. The course ground is pegged as 'Good', which should suit this 6-year-old gelding well. Currently, this horse is being offered at decent odds of 4.0, which might just be a tempting pick for those looking around for value. Although this Jamie Snowden trainee hasn't clocked any races recently at Market Rasen, a broader look reveals a somewhat consistent performer with two wins from five starts over 720 days, represented by a strike rate of 0.4. Jockey G Sheehan might not have excelled at this course recently but his long-term relationship with Snowden shows a competent win rate. Although their joint efforts here haven't yet set the track alight, results elsewhere imply a decent collaboration. Next, Max Of Stars might catch your eye with the shortest odds in the race at 3.0. This 5-year-old mare is handled by Ollie Pears and guided by jockey B S Hughes. Although she's light on experience at this course, having an impressive distance win rate of 0.43 over 720 days suggests she shouldn't be written off too quickly. Additionally, her recent form, winning her last outing, aligns seamlessly with an exquisite 100% race strike rate over the last 30 days. Hughes’s overall form might not dazzle, but combined with Pears's guidance, they have pulled off some decent performances in the past. Lastly, Roxanne, riding with odds of 2.88, stands out chiefly due to her recent performance record over similar distances. Even though she hasn't marked a victory at Market Rasen previously, a win rate of 1.0 over 180 days at similar distances shows promise. Teamed up with Kielan Woods and under the training of D Skelton, their combined form harbors potential despite a lack of course wins. With age and weight comparable to her contenders, Roxanne appears capable, but will need a strong performance to outpace her competition. As a hot tip, Reach For The Moon sticks out among the trio, being the predicted winner for this race. Good luck to all and remember, bet responsibly!
