Verdict

JAY BEE WHY (NAP) returned to hurdles with a fourth in Class 2 company over track and trip last month. He finished ahead of Dorking Boy on that occasion and can confirm running in this lower grade. Stormy Flight has been thereabouts lately though still looks a shade high in the weights and the same comment also applies to Haafapiece. Up For Parol failed to complete in the Imperial Cup at Sandown last time but may prove best of the rest back at this level.
