Pertemps Final Betting News

With the qualifiers for the Pertemps Network Hurdle Series still under way, the 2027 Pertemps Final market has barely taken shape and few horses are priced up at this stage. Supremely West is likely to be higher in the handicap after his success for Dan Skelton, though he could yet take his chance again, while Lavida Adiva ran a huge race in second for Ruth Jefferson.

Ikarak and Letos both outran big prices in third and fourth and could return, as could several of last year’s market leaders who failed to figure, including Absolutely Doyen and Bold Endeavour, who were both sent off at 8/1.
