In depth
Verdict
Jem In Em was beaten under a length on his hurdling debut here last December but has failed to build on that. Though a little disappointing on her handicap debut at Cartmel last month, JUMPING SUSIE wasn’t beaten far in maidens at Bellewstown and Killarney in July and warrants another chance. Imperial Data, a winner between the flags, has found only one too good in three runs over timber and won’t be far away again with Here Comes Georgie preferred to Ballyquin Bay of the remainder.
