JACK THUNDER placed in an Irish point in his younger days. He’s also made the frame over hurdles and in a bumper and is no forlorn hope making his chasing bow in a weak novices’ handicap. Ahead Of Schedule was a winner here in June but disappointing on a return visit while Time To Bite is now 0-20 despite placing the last twice. Heronord continually flatters to deceive while both Sublime Heights and Faitque De L'Isle lack a recent run.
