Black Jet ticks plenty of boxes in this and recent track work will have sharpened up the veteran for his first start since the end of last year. However, he likes to lead and that may not be possible given his outside draw. Georgina Baxter also runs Ro Boy Bode, who has a much more favourable starting berth, and he shouldn’t be far away while Saffie Joseph will be hoping one drops out as the bang in-form Combination would have a chance if taking part. Earth is much better than he showed last month but we’ll take a chance on BUSHROD, who is more than capable of reversing form last time with Gran Malbec if in the mood.
