      Verdict

      Flyball had a run under his belt before winning this for the Hannon yard last term but Jet Setting is still likely to be thereabouts on her racecourse debut. Gin In The Inn is related to recent winner Grandad's World and Willytheconqueror is a half-brother to the prolific Bold Thady Quill. But TWISTING HAY cost 140,000gns and Mark Johnston's Cape Cross colt may well be up to landing this at the first time of asking with his yard starting the season in fine form.
