A couple of these placed in France last year with Jackpot D'athou subsequently joining Paul Nicholls’ yard and Jaitroplaclasse debuting for Nicky Henderson. But the latter’s stablemate MONTECAM cost a whopping 300,000 euros as a half-brother to the high-class Altior among others with Nico de Boinville’s presence suggesting he’s the yard’s first choice. Navajo Indy and Elpologreg are likely improvers while Thurley, Hot Fizzy Lizzy and Saxons Lane are newcomers to note with the latter representing last year’s winning yard.
