"... the handicapper has taken a real chance with Annaluna back over hurdles given she's enjoyed another productive season on the level..."
The better racing on Thursday comes from Taunton but the best bets are at Ludlow.
Pitter Patter - 13:30 Ludlow
The well-regarded Taylor, The Scarlett Woman and Two Swallows can leave their bumper form behind now going hurdling, but Pitter Patter made an encouraging start in this sphere when chasing home the highly-promising Lady Buttons at Worcester last month and can make that experience count.
Abbeygrey - 14:00 Ludlow
Abbeygrey is clearly going the right way and is taken to land the hat-trick racing off only 5 lb higher than for his win at Newton Abbot last month. Kingcora can be expected to do much better with his reappearance under his belt, while Sin Bin remains with potential over fences.
Annaluna - 15:30 Ludlow
Prince Pippin and Rolling Dough arrive in pretty good form, which cannot be said for the majority, so they need respecting, but the handicapper has taken a real chance with Annaluna back over hurdles given she's enjoyed another productive season on the level, so she is the selection.
