ATOMIC JACK has had a couple of starts over timber but has won three times over 2m on the Flat including twice on the Polytrack at Kempton. George Baker’s charge makes most appeal in this. Royaume Uni won over 1m6f on the Flat in France last summer when with Andre Fabre while Saturn 'n Silk and Dont Go Gentle have both placed in bumpers on the Turf. Mystic Dreamer has been in decent form over hurdles and is another to consider given she won a bumper at Cheltenham back in 2019.
