Winning pointer who was progressive over hurdles, making a winning handicap bow at Uttoxeter on return last month. Should have more to offer still now going chasing.

Fairly useful form over hurdles/fences in France but let down by jumping 3 of 4 starts for this yard, including on return. Becoming well treated at least.

Scored twice over hurdles but not as good over fences last season, well held last 2 starts. Dropped to a career-low mark and back down in class at least. Off 7 months. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Performed with credit both outings in France and fair form over hurdles so far for current stable. Let down by jumping back over fences at Warwick on comeback but return to further will suit.

4/1
Better than ever after 14 months off when easily winning at Wincanton despite a typically erratic round of jumping. Improved again when second here (19.4f, heavy) 3 weeks ago, clear of rest. Big shout.

8/1
Dual winner in points who got off the mark over hurdles in maiden at Newton Abbot in July. Some improvement switched to fences/handicaps since though well held here last time. Needs to bounce back.

Forecasts

James Jet (5/2), Inflexible (3/1), Boston Joe (4/1), Gazette Bourgeoise (6/1), Frankie Faulkner (8/1), Margaret's Legacy (10/1), Ballinsker (22/1), Orange Diamond (50/1)

Verdict

BOSTON JOE is clearly an improved model this season and remains of interest having pulled clear with the winner here 3 weeks ago. Winning pointer James Jet was progressive over hurdles so is a likely threat on chase bow, while Gazette Bourgeoise and Margaret's Legacy are both becoming well handicapped.
