Jetaway Joey was second on his hurdling debut at Carlisle but looked beaten when odds-on at Wetherby subsequently and may struggle to cope here with TUPELO MISSISSIPPI. Brian Ellison’s dual bumper winner wasn’t beaten far in a Class 2 at Newcastle last time with the runner-up that day placing in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham earlier this month. Hollymount Holly is worth a market check as she finished second on her hurdles bow at Wincanton in March having already won a point and a bumper. Itsnotwhatyouthink has yet to finish out of the frame but this looks an above-average maiden.
