A three-times winner on the Flat, it hasn’t really clicked for REVEREND JACOBS over hurdles so far but he has been a bit more consistent than form figures would suggest and is now 18lb lower than when third at Doncaster last season. Jeu De Mots was second at Sedgefield earlier this month following wind surgery and Detatched also found only one too good at Warwick. Oceans Red was third at Uttoxeter last month but didn’t run up that form at Southwell last time.
