Verdict

Western Jo makes his debut for the emerging Samantha and Jonathan England partnership, and having already found a bargain with My Renaissance, this Westerner gelding looks a possible market springer now back over hurdles from a much reduced handicap mark of 102 (once trained by Phillip Hobbs). However, GALVESTON has more recent form in the book, and with Gordon Elliott likely still getting to know this ex Fergal O'Brien trained inmate (runner up at Uttoxeter in June), there's every possibility that he's capable of bettering his recent fourth placed run at Perth with Richard Johnson back in the saddle.
