Bossman Jack
BOSSMAN JACK looks yet another useful prospect for the Skelton yard and should be hard to beat again. Recent Ffos Las runner-up Emerald Breeze might fill the forecast spot again. I'm Wide Awake's bumper ability suggests he could play a prominent role on hurdle debut, while Rebecca Curtis point recruit Doujadou is one to note in the betting.

Impressive winner of sole bumper at Wincanton and confirmed hurdling debut promise when mastering a previous winner after the last in 11-runner novice at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) 36 days ago, well on top finish. More to come and should be hard to beat again.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFfos Las1m 7f 182ySoftHurdle1/11Warwick2mGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle3/13Wincanton1m 7f 50yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Bumper1/12- 5Emerald BreezeJ: Tom BellamyT: Dominic Elsworth44-32Age 611/211/25/1

Reached the frame in a pair of course bumpers at the beginning of 2025 and translated that ability to hurdles at the second time of asking when second of 7 in 2m Ffos Las novice on heavy a fortnight ago.

Getaway sister to fairly useful hurdler Listentoyourheart and half-sister to hurdle winner Miss Corby. One of 3 from her top stable, with Bossman Jack the first string unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.- 3Donald JumpJ: James TurnerT: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies34Age 540/140/133/1
