Verdict
This can go to Jaboune, who had little more than a piece of work when landing the odds at Hereford. He may have most to fear from hurdling debutante Persian Pride. A useful handicapper on the flat, this half-brother to Vodafone Derby fourth Housemaster, has the scope to make up into a useful hurdler and whatever he does today, he looks one to follow in the future.
