Thriving for his new yard this year, landing 9f handicaps at Hamilton and Ripon, and confirmed himself better than ever when runner-up in Old Borough Cup at Haydock 19 days ago. Leading contender.

9/2
Course winner who hasn't been firing on all cylinders but had a clear excuse when a well-held fourth at Newmarket (14f) 26 days ago, having raced closer to the pace than ideal. Eased 2 lb.

Ran some good races on the Flat last year, most notably when fourth in the Cesarewitch final outing. Developed into a useful hurdler last winter, though pulled up in Champion Hurdle when last seen.

Forecasts

Dark Jedi (1/1), Floating Artist (7/2), Not So Sleepy (4/1), Frankel's Storm (4/1), Amazing Red (9/2), West End Girl (12/1)

Verdict

DARK JEDI has been steadily progressive for his new yard this season and has to be considered the one to beat following his excellent second in the Old Borough Cup at Haydock. Floating Artist should be more at home now back in handicap company and rates the main threat.

  1. DARK JEDI (IRE)
  2. FLOATING ARTIST
  3. NOT SO SLEEPY
