Ayr

Today, January 21, 2025Hurdle3mSoft

AYIKO is going the right way as a hurdler and a reproduction of the form shown on his latest start could be enough to see him open his account in this sphere. This is a deeper maiden that tends to be the case for the track however, and both Jo Coko and Orkney Blue are interesting rivals.

    Verdict
    Promising start when runner-up in a Hexham bumper in April and sold from Toby Lawes for £35,000 after. Kept on for fourth on hurdles debut at Carlisle (20f) and took a step forward when second at Hexham (20.1f) last month, pulling clear of rest. Likely to progress further now upped to 3m.

    Verdict
    £160,000 5-y-o, Milan gelding. Successful sole outing in Irish points in February but ran below expectations when only fourth of 8 in a 2m Wetherby novice just over 6 weeks ago. Could prove a different proposition over this markedly longer trip.

    Verdict
    £100,000 after finishing runner-up in a maiden point. Only fourth in an course bumper in February but has offered plenty more both starts over hurdles, including when third in 2m4f maiden at Hexham latterly. Upped further in trip.

    Verdict
    £30,000 5-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Drumacoo. Runner-up completed start in Irish points in April and market should offer up some clues on this switch to Rules.
