In depth
Verdict
Amenon placed over hurdles and fences in France but hasn’t raced since June 2019. Getmegold has claims on his third at Wincanton last December while Tigers Roar won between the flags in May. JAZZ KING sports colours seen frequently in the winner’s enclosure here and his yard is starting to fire in the winners. He showed promise in both bumper runs and is bred for jumping. Jet Of Magic won a heavy-ground Punchestown bumper on debut so could be another to follow.
