Affection
AFFECTION, a multiple winner on the Flat in France, made an encouraging start for her new yard at Salisbury a fortnight ago and appeals as the type to do well in summer juvenile hurdles. She's preferred to Sudbury Hill, who failed to justify favouritism on his recent Hexham hurdling debut but should be better suited by this less-demanding track.

Fairly useful performer at up to easy 1¼m on the Flat yet not sure to reach the same heights over jumps given potential stamina limitations and failed to land the odds starting out over hurdles in an unusual speed test at (2m) 17 days ago. This flatter track should suit him better, though.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHexham2m 48yGoodHurdle2/6York1m 3f 188yGoodFlat12/14Redcar1m 2f 1yGood to FirmFlat2/6Lingfield Park1m 2fStandardFlat3/6Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat2/8- 3AffectionJ: David NoonanT: David PipeAge 311/411/45/2

Fairly useful on the Flat, winning a pair of French claimers at up to 1½m prior to finishing a respectable third back in handicap company at Salisbury (1¼m, heavy) on UK/stable debut a fortnight ago.

Dragon Dancer filly. Dam unraced sister to dual bumper winner/useful 2½m/21f hurdle winner Tikkanbar. Makes some appeal on paper and worth a precautionary check in the betting.
