JOLLY JUMPER

Last run winner, three weeks ago this horse showed impressive form in a Sha Tin 1600m race, leading from start to finish to secure victory. Stepping up in class, his debut at Happy Valley over a mile sees him with a four-pound weight reduction. The distance should suit, and he has the ability to track the leaders. He can press forward, draws a favorable barrier, and Alexis Badel takes the ride; horse, jockey, and trainer appear well-matched. A clean break is key, and if he gets it, expect him to be competitive.
