FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - LAND JET has run in the colours of Douglas Taylor up until now, but off a break the five-year-old begins for the Second Leg Syndicate in this. Taylor has Jet Away standing at Arctic Tack Stud in County Wexford, and though the selection here isn’t one of that Cape Cross horse’s more prominent sons, there should be races to be won with him yet. An extended three miles on good going is an interesting experiment with Land Jet. Joseph O’Brien tried a horse with a similar profile in a handicap hurdle like this, at this venue in the past. That resulted in a win when Ellipsism scored here, also under J J Slevin in September 2019. Esthers Marvel and Four Horsemen are two of the more obvious dangers.
