Nick Littmoden is better known as a trainer of Flat horses but runs two in this. Jetset Lad, a half-brother to two winning jumpers, may prove the pick of his pair. KEEN ON is by top NH sire Kayf Tara and a half-brother to the stable’s useful jump winners Close Touch, Open Hearted and Midsummer Magic so shouldn’t be short of ability. Fellow newcomer Overflow also represents a leading yard while Millstone started favourite at Warwick in January, though only beat one home. West Coast Glory and Namib Dancer may be best of the rest.
