Miss fits the bill for SA's Dylan Cunha at Lingfield

September 2024

Dylan Cunha has a canny knack of getting the best out of low-cost recruits and Hello Miss Lady looks like another bargain buy for the South Africa-born trainer.

This daughter of Gleneagles cost just 6,500gns as a yearling and, to be fair, she did little to get excited about in her first two races at Newmarket and Sandown.

Both contests did feature some smart performers, but Hello Miss Lady was still allowed to start off as a 100-1 outsider on her latest outing at Kempton.

However, she belied those big odds by finishing a fine 0.5-lengths second to Cognisance, who had previously impressed in an emphatic debut strike at Redcar.

Third home Port Road and fourth-placed Leadman already had strong form on the board, so there is plenty of evidence to support the value of that effort and suggest it was no flash in the pan.

Hello Miss Lady's half-sister Hedonista is a dual all-weather winner and with the race conditions at Lingfield favouring the selection, she can follow suit in the Get The Inside Track With raceday-ready.com Restricted Novice Stakes.

Sixteen One made a good impression when just failing to wear down Kylie Of Lochalsh on her first start at Leicester.

She attracted plenty of support that day, so presumably had been showing up well at home and can go one better in the Free Digital Racecard At raceday-ready.com Restricted Maiden Fillies' Stakes.

Pure Of Heart failed to settle at Kempton last time but has hinted at ability on more than one occasion in the past, notably when a good second at this venue behind Queens Fort.

That winner went on to run in the Ribblesdale next time out, whereas Ollie Sangster is setting his sights much lower in the Download The At The Races App Fillies' Handicap.

Bryan Smart's stable is in great spirits at present, so backing Monetize makes sense in the Hoover Supporting Andersons Autumn Sale EBF Fillies' Restricted Novice Stakes at Carlisle.

A half-sister to three winners, including the smart Ventura Rebel, this daughter of Mohaather ran green when third on her Thirsk debut but should come on for that experience.

South Pole showed promise for Aidan O'Brien before switching to George Boughey, who has not had a straightforward time with the son of No Nay Never.

The three-year-old was gelded following a one-paced Salisbury fourth and was again tapped for toe when fifth in handicap company at Kempton.

However, some cut underfoot and Carlisle's stiff home straight should suit in the Assa Abloy Supporting Andersons Celebrate 135yrs Maiden Stakes.

Over the jumps at Worcester, Harry Fry's Miss Goldfire gets the nod in the Jenningsbet Mares' Maiden Hurdle.

The five-year-old was a Wetherby bumper winner on her racecourse bow and should be up to scoring over timber anytime soon judged on a recent course second, when looking sure to benefit from this step up in trip. - Press Association
