In depth

Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer January Jets is expected to do better this campaign after showing plenty of potential last season though was engaged in the 4.05 at Galway yesterday. Dual bumper winner Dewcup has finished runner-up in two recent starts on the Flat and looks certain to make a hurdler as does Getabay, placed in his last three bumpers, all when a short-priced favourite. CHARCOR (NAP) has a Flat rating of 95 after three victories. He's been running in strong company and arrives in good form so gets the nod to make a successful hurdling debut.
