THE HOTLIST

Alan Morris adds to the Racing Daily Hotlist as he looks at two recent runners you need to add to your trackers. LINDORO (S HANLON) 4yo gelding Lindoro’s unplaced reappearance in a fair maiden at Newcastle this week was only his third run and a first for Stephen Hanlon, after two promising outings for Ann Duffield last summer. He led and battled on til very late in a reasonable maiden over 7f at Redcar at 3 to confirm with the right mark there is potential to develop over 6/

Alan Morris takes a look over the past week's action and pinpoints two recent runners worth following as they make our hotlist. ASHEN (J GOLDIE) The lightly-raced 4yo gelding Ashen looks to be in the right place to make a sprint breakthrough having joined Jim Goldie after a 30000gns sale last summer. He reappeared in two quick races over the New Year but showed much more at Thirsk this week after a break. Ashen was slowly away, having ducked out left from the wing stall but

Alan Morris looks back at the past seven days and pinpoints a pair of recent runners worth following. STIRRUP CUP (T EASTERBY) Stirrup Cup is looking a bargain at 1000gns and ran well on seasonal debut in finishing second at Thirsk this week, travelling well but a long way from the winner drawn on the opposite side. The 4yo gelding won over 6f as a 3yo at Hamilton and he looks ready to strike as his form has been on ground no faster than good so far, alongside Newcastle form

Alan Morris looks back at the past weeks recent runners and pinpoints a duo you need to pay close attention to. MEHMAS ENGINE (J TATE) 3yo filly Mehmas Engine has had two promising thirds in her two runs this season after being unraced at two and can improve further as she learns on the job. She was made favourite on debut over 5f at Southwell and it was a pleasing educational introduction for a keen horse. This week’s third at Kempton was a similar positive experience, runn

Alan Morris returns with his weekly horses you need to add to your trackers. KELLY BURN (J FANSHAWE) Kelly Burn is a well-bred 3yo filly as a full sister to Allmankind and half-sister to other winning stayers and hurdlers. Three quick all-weather runs afforded her a mark of 65 and she ran a promising race at Doncaster Sunday in a strong 10f 0-75 that looks to have a few future winners in it. She was held up and ran on well enough to suggest success awaits over 10f+ and 12f l

Alan Morris looks back on what was one of the busiest and most prestigious weeks in racing and finds two runners punters need to put in their trackers. EVELYN’S GARDEN (K SCOTT) Evelyn’s Garden was sent off at 200-1 in three quick maiden runs at Newcastle earlier this year and was not that competitive but obtained a handicap rating of 47. The 3yo filly showed her first semblance of form this week at 50-1 in a class 6 handicap at the same track travelling well enough for a lo

Alan Morris looks back at the most recent runners and picks out a pair you cannot ignore. MAGDALAYNA (O SANGSTER) Magdalayna slowly found her feet for Hughie Morrison and the 3yo filly won in November over a mile at Kempton before being transferred to Ollie Sangster. She is bred to get further but faded late on at Southwell over a mile this week and runs as if even 7f might be worth a try. Off a rating of only 61 she looks to have plenty of room for improvement and we can be

Alan Morris looks back at last week's action and finds two recent runners to pay close attention to in the not too distant future. WEE MARY (J GOLDIE) Wee Mary recently gained her first win and the 4yo filly should gain a lot of confidence from that after a series of seconds for previous trainer Rebecca Menzies. With a mark of 51 there is plenty scope for Jim Goldie to play with and she could end up back in classified company after another loss. By Sands Of Mali, out of a 5f

Alan Morris looks back at last week's action and pinpoints two recent runners you should keep a close eye on. NAMMOS (J OWEN) Nammos looks the type James Owen will find the key to and could give us a swift return at Wolverhampton on Monday with Luke Morris aboard. Faster Bee was well-ridden from a wide draw seven days ago to steal a march on her rivals whilst Nammos was shuffled back under a 7lb claimer and ran on late in to second. Faster Bee should be respected under a 4lb

Alan Morris picks out a duo of horses who've recently taken to the track and both produced eye-catching performances worthy of making The Hotlist. MISTER R (N RICHARDS) Mister R ran a promising race on debut behind three previous winners at Kelso over 2m on heavy. The 5yo horse was surprisingly strong in the market, halving in price to 5-1 but was competitive for a long way and weakened only late on. He is a half-brother to three winners that the yard have trained, including

Alan Morris looks back on last week's action and pinpoints two recent runners you need to be adding to your trackers. ELECTROCUTION (C BANHAM) It’s the season for finding well-handicapped 3yos improving considerably from non-competitive runs in 2yo maidens but it can be difficult in working out the solid form from weak events. Electrocution sparked into life at Wolverhampton in finishing 2nd at 33-1 in January and returned to the circuit this week to win over 7f off a mark o

Alan Morris picks two recent runners he's claiming to be "out there" but could come up good in the not too distant future. O’GRADY’S HILL (S-J DAVIES) He is not a hill I’m about to die on but he seemed to be enjoying himself at Ffos Las, jumping well at 66-1 in front until a juddering mistake at the 8th. He kept on in atrocious conditions before weakening two out. The former point-to-point winner may yet still strike over fences off a very low mark of 87 presently. He previo
