I can’t believe I am suggesting a runner at Hexham in the middle of August, but Lady Kara is my second suggestion this Wednesday when she has her second start in the bumper that closes the card at 7.45pm.
A well-bred daughter of Kapgarde, out of a dual winner in Ireland, she ran a blinder at Newton Abbot to be beaten a length and a quarter with the third nine lengths back, despite pulling too hard too early which will have hindered her chances of seeing out the race.
The theory is that she will learn plenty form that experience, and if that is the case she can win here even though her long term future undoubtedly lies over hurdles followed by fences in the years ahead.
