CARNSPINDLE graduates to hurdles after comfortably winning a bumper at Uttoxeter on New Year’s Eve. The runner-up was second over timber in a decent contest at Newbury on her next start and Warren Greatrex’ mare may be able to cash in on the fact she receives 6lb from Sister Sybil. The Towcester winner will be no pushover, however, as she just failed to repel the challenge of the gambled-on Toberdowney at Wincanton on Boxing Day when she was also conceding weight. Alizee Javilex has now run three times over hurdles but appears to be going backwards while points winner Midnight Walk was well beaten on her first start under Rules.
