JACKPOT CASH was much-improved on debut for his shrewd new yard over hurdles at Southwell nine days ago and, if able to reproduce something akin to that returned to this sphere off a 5 lb lower mark, he will take the world of beating. The clear main danger is Night Jet, who made a successful start in this sphere at Leicester and should have more to offer as a chaser. Grasshopper Time is third choice ahead of Eric Carmen.
