JETAWAY JOEY may have a touch more scope for improvement than likely main market rival Frenchy Du Large who has been runner-up on all three starts so far and deserves to get his head in front some time soon. The selection showed plenty of pormise when second on debut at Market Rasen and his yard does very well in this sphere. Milnthorpe attracted money on debut only to disappoint but is worth noting for any more market support, while Lightning Gold is not out of this is returning to the form she showed when runner-up on her racecourse bow.
