Bossman Jack (1.20) continues to impress in hurdles and is favored to replicate The New Lion’s success from a year ago. Born from Jack Hobbs and dam Lindeman, with four winning offspring, including Gidleigh Park, Bossman Jack started his career victoriously in a Wincanton bumper last January.
After finishing third in his hurdle debut at Warwick behind Cristal D’Estruval, Bossman Jack bounced back to win a novice hurdle at Ffos Las in January, defeating Starzand. Subsequently, he effortlessly won at Chepstow with a 13-length lead over Doujadou, despite carrying a 7lb penalty.
Although running four races at two miles, Bossman Jack’s pedigree suggests potential for longer distances. The extra five furlongs in the upcoming race may unlock further progress.
The race field features promising contenders like No Drama This End, Act Of Innocence, Sober, and Laurets D’Estruval.
In the next event, Romeo Coolio (2.00) is set for a suitable race to maintain his unbeaten record over fences. With notable wins in the Drinmore Novices’ Chase and the Irish Arkle Novice Chase, Romeo Coolio, trained by Gordon Elliott, is favored to excel at three miles.
Facing competition from Kaid D’Authie, Wendigo, and Oscars Brother, Romeo Coolio aims for another victory. The race lineup also includes strong contenders like Storm Heart, Kateira, Jingko Blue, and Ballyadam.
Vanillier (3.20), the previous Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle champion, is expected to perform well in the upcoming race. Despite age, Vanillier has proven success in cross-country races, winning at Punchestown. With Favori De Champdou, Desertmore House, and Final Orders as challengers, Vanillier seeks another victory.
L’Eau Du Sud (4.00) poses a strong challenge against hot favorite Majborough. Trained by Dan Skelton, L’Eau Du Sud impressed in the Shloer Chase and aims to continue his winning streak. Majborough, a Grade 1 Dublin Chase winner, faces competition from Irish Panther.
Jazzy Matty (4.40), a two-time Cheltenham Festival winner, looks to secure another victory. Despite recent setbacks, Jazzy Matty remains a contender with Be Aware, Inthepocket, Jasko Des Dames, and Break My Soul as top competitors.
Keep Him Company (5.20), undefeated since his debut, is poised for success in a competitive race. With promising potential, Keep Him Company aims to outperform Love Sign D’Aunou, Quirin, Bass Hunter, and Broadway Ted.
