A step up in class and step down in trip for Barrons Land after not quite relishing the test at Southwell last time out.
The Racing Club were in good spirits as Newbury saw a bumper crowd for Challow Hurdle Day, we feel like there's some progress to be made with the newly acquired 6 year old, possibly over fences but a spin round under Kevin would give us plenty of food of thought.
As usual, Kevin gave a well judged ride up with the pace, over a trip perhaps shorter than ideal Barrons Land was travelling well heading into the home straight but just failed to quicken as the race picked up. She continued to stay on though and Kevin had some great feedback for the team (with the Racing Club in attendance) with regards to future plans.
There's a race to win with her definitely.
