In depth
Verdict
WHATDJAZZ, winner of a Fakenham bumper earlier this year, is making her hurdles bow at a modest level and shouldn’t be far away if jumping soundly. Mistress Massini didn’t fare badly when fourth at Towcester last week and Big Penny is sure to improve for her second at Catterick when she may have found the trip too far. Rum Swizzle has won four times over middle-distances on the Flat and is another to consider but Sugar Storm will fare better when going handicapping.
