Jett^p⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 12-2| J: Mr Sam Waley-Cohen| T: R Waley-Cohen| OR: 147

8/15

One-time high-class chaser for Mrs J. Harrington and he completed a simple task starting out in this code at Kelso 9 days ago. Could take pretty high rank as a hunter chaser.

Form: P068-31

Shantou Flyer^b,t²⁹⁰

Age: 12| Weight: 12-2| J: Mr D Maxwell| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 135| BF| CD

2/1

Useful chaser who was a fine third in the Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival in March. Well below-par when failing to land the odds at Fontwell in May but he's the obvious threat to Jett.

Form: 3/423U-2

Robin Is Ready⁵⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr C J D Rawdon-Mogg⁽⁷⁾| T: Ms Hannah Grissell

80/1

Dam, well beaten in bumper, half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Hitherjacques Lady). Placed first of 5 starts in points, last of 5 finishers latest (Dec 31).

Form: 232/35

Sam Red^p,t³⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Miss Lucy Turner⁽³⁾| T: A B Leyshon| OR: 105

12/1

Back to form when adding to good Cheltenham record with second over 4m there in April. Outclassed at Stratford a month later and third place looks on the cards here. Unplaced in a point last month.

Form: 33-2647

Forecasts

Jett (8/15), Shantou Flyer (2/1), Sam Red (12/1), Robin Is Ready (80/1)

JETT is a classy recruit to this code and following a facile win at Kelso last week is fancied to remain unbeaten. Shantou Flyer is established as a useful hunter chaser and will ensure the Waley-Cohen inmate doesn't have it all his own way in what is effectively a match.
