THE BOYLESPORTS BEST ODDS GUARANTEED DAY BEFORE HURDLE RACE (CLASS 2) (GBB RACE) (CL 2) (2m 4f)

LANGER DAN (1) is the main threat as a track winner under suitable conditions. Top chaser DASHEL DRASHER (3) cannot be left out of the equation revisiting hurdles especially if allowed an easy lead. VOIX DU REVE (4) would need improvement to be involved.
