SYMBOLIC SPIRIT (1.55, nap) can mark her first attempt at two and a half miles with a first career win in the Quinnbet Daily Free Bet Mares’ Handicap Hurdle at Uttoxeter on Tuesday.
The Amy Murphy-trained daughter of Westerner made her handicap debut in a two-mile hurdle for mares at Southwell last month.
Sent off at 7-1 in a field of eight, Symbolic Spirit put up a personal best in finishing second, beaten a length and a half, to Eventful.
My selection’s dam, Carole’s Spirit, scored three times over this afternoon’s trip before a Listed score over three miles at Kempton Park for the final success of her career, which suggests the extra yardage here will trigger further progress.
A 1lb nudge up the weights is neither here nor there and, on her fifth attempt over obstacles, Jack Quinlan’s mount can get her head in front for the first time.
At Southwell, BRAZEN IDOL (6.50, nb) has plenty going for him as he bids to rack up a four-timer against nine opponents for the BetUK Acca Club £5 Free Bet Handicap (Div II).
