WHITBY JET has looked an improved performer since returning to action. He's finished second in a couple of starts on the Polytrack this month and today's return to turf could see him go one better. Bath winner Fire Crystal could figure once again off only a 3lb higher mark, while Inca Blue had Downtown Boy and Byron Bear behind when runner-up at Redcar earlier this month and is another to consider. Syncopated Lady is open to improvement on her seasonal reappearance and is one to note in the betting.
