Formerly trained in France, JATILUWIH (NAP) has won all four starts in novice company since being gelded and joining Philip Hobbs’ yard. It’s unlikely we’ve seen the best of him yet and he can continue winning ways now handicapping. Falco Blitz was beaten by the selection earlier but won a maiden hurdle at Fakenham on his reappearance while Legends Gold won a handicap at Stratford before landing a double in novice races but is 10lb higher today. Jessica Harrington’s Conron has to race off a 13lb higher mark in this country after winning at Punchestown but Remastered makes more appeal on today’s surface fitted with a tongue-tie for the first time while the remainder have something to prove off their current marks.
