Verdict
Picture Post showed promise in two starts last season and wasn't beaten far on his reappearance at Lingfield. He shouldn't be far away while there is probably more to come from December's Bangor fourth Wing Mira and Fine Words, who made his debut in a hot-looking heat at Sandown in February. Ex-pointers Dunluce Castle and Keltic Rhythm have ability while Joanne One won a mares' Listed race at Navan in November for John Kiely and also ran in that grade on her first start for Jamie Snowden. James Fanshawe's rare runners under National Hunt Rules are always worth a second look and his newcomer AQUA JETER is no exception. He's a half-brother to Group 1 winner Master Of Hounds, who ran at Meydan on Saturday, and may take some stopping in this if inheriting a fraction of his sibling's ability.
