Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Jetty May
Jetty May won over hurdles at Newton Abbot from a lower mark and, while well beaten when tried at a longer trip last time on the same mark, comes back to a more suitable distance in first-time cheekpieces; the course-and-distance form is a key asset. Edgewell is the most likely danger, having won off a higher mark than today and now back to a workable level, though he races lazily and needs careful placing. Hatos would likely have won but for a fall last time and remains a live threat if he completes the course, while Honey I'm Good is better suited by fences. Jetty May is our selection.
