JAHBATH CAN CLEAN UP
CLEAN up with JAHBATH (7.00) in the ‘Road To The Kentucky Derby’ Stakes at Kempton.
William Haggas’ exciting three-year-old colt oozed class with dual course and distance wins at two and warmed up for tonight by routing at Southwell.

(4.55) towers over the opposition in the opening Matchbook Handicap. Mark Johnston’s four-year-old made it four in terrific style at

BY GARRY OWEN Chelmsford and can shrug off another 8lb hike up in trip.
(5.30) can overcome a tricky draw for Wiltshire handler Jimmy Fox. The gelding recorded a clear personal best when beating
here and remains nicely unexposed.
Paul Cole’s (6.30) can open his account in the novice event. The son of

second to on debut at Chelmsford and can put that experience to good use. Sir Mark Prescott’s
(7.30) is well worth a punt in the Matchbook VIP Handicap. The four-year-old didn’t quite stay a mile when a fair third at Newcastle but can resume his upward curve back over seven furlongs.
The six-furlong handicap is very trappy but I’m happy to side with (8.00). Christine Dunnett’s speedster ran another

stormer when edged out by

(8.30) can live up to his name in another competitive sprint. Tim Pinfield’s gelding has a decent record at this venue and remains fairly-treated after his good second to

(3.20) can maintain Venetia Williams’ winning run at Catterick. The mare gave the classy a fright at Bangor in
Collooney Real
January and can go one better with any repeat of that show.
Micky Hammond has also hit form and he can land the two-miler with (3.50). The nine-year-old remains wellhandicapped after dismissing at Sedgefield.
(4.20) can continue Donald McCain’s comeback in the staying hurdle. The nine-year-old was unlucky to meet at Musselburgh and can gain compensation over this extra two furlongs.
