Either Or Heads to Doncaster for Staying Mares’ Hurdle

We are delighted to be heading to Doncaster tomorrow with Either Or, who is set to line up in the Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice Mares’ Handicap Hurdle at 2:33 pm. 

The race looks a good fit for her and comes at the right time. After her most recent outing over fences, the decision was taken to switch back to hurdles purely due to the races that are available at this time of year. We believe this contest offers a suitable chance to get her back out again while she remains in good order.

Race details at a glance

• Race, – Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice Mares’ Handicap Hurdle (Class 5)

• Time, – 14:33

• Track, – Doncaster

• Distance, – 3m 84y

• Going, – Good to Soft (Soft in places)

Either Or steps up to three miles, a trip we feel should suit her well. A tongue tie has also been applied after she appeared to gulp slightly on her last run, a small adjustment made with her comfort in mind.

James Bowen takes the ride, having partnered her before, and his familiarity with her is another positive going into the race.

She has been training well at home and we are looking forward to seeing how she gets on.
