Three-time winner over fences, the latest at Southwell (2m) in September. Has continued in good nick, and his latest effort is excused after enduring equipment problems. Should go well again off an easing mark.

4/1
Won his only start in points easily and has showed promise in 4 starts over hurdles. Offered something to work on sent chasing on handicap debut when runner-up at Southwell (15.8f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago and fancied to take a step forward.

4/1
Poor initially last season but returned to form when scoring in first-time cheekpieces at Fontwell (19.5f) in February. That very much a standout last season, finishing well held in his follow-up bid 6 weeks later at Hereford and has since switched yards.

10/1
Standout effort in 2021/22 when landing 4-runner Fontwell handicap (21.6f). Respectable third at Newton Abbot on reappearance in June last year but struggled to match that on all 4 outings since. Best watched with the equipment discarded after 9 months off the track.

10/1
Hit the target off a 15 lb higher mark at Southwell last June but more miss than hit since. Faced a stiff task from 3 lb out of the handicap at Stratford (17f, good to soft) recently and could well make a splash back in Class 5 company.

10/3
Off the mark in handicap hurdle at Worcester (20f) in September and offered a good deal more than on her chasing debut when runner-up at back at Worcester last month, showing the benefit of her reappearance. Could well have more to offer, so may well go one better.

Scored off 5 lb higher at Plumpton last season but typically in-and-out after and well held on both outings so far in 2023. Makes return from over 5 months off and likely to need this.

Showed some ability in a pair of maiden hurdles for Miss Elizabeth Doyle in March 2021. Didn't show much over hurdles for current yard, but some encouragement on chasing debut when third of 6 at Ffos Las in April. Not so good since at Worcester however but can bounce back.

Losing run stretches back over 2 years and beaten a fair way on all 4 outing this season after a breathing operation. More severe headgear enlisted and the tongue tie goes back on, but easy enough to look elsewhere once again.

Forecasts

If I Say (10/3), Arcade Attraction (4/1), Jet Of Dreams (4/1), Forget You Not (5/1), Gouet Des Bruyeres (13/2), Ocean's Of Money (9/1), Atlantic Storm (10/1), Moans Cross (10/1), Mawlood (12/1), Dont Be Robin (20/1)

Verdict

JET OF DREAMS offered plenty to work on sent chasing when finishing runner-up at Southwell just less than 3 weeks ago and with improvement on the cards, Warren Greatrex's 5-y-o is fancied to go one better with a fully-fledged rider taking over. If I Say showed the benefit of her reappearance at Worcester recently so she's put forward as the main threat, with Atlantic Storm and Gouet des Bruyeres others fancied to go well.
