Verdict

A good winner on his debut in this sphere at Exeter in March, YIPPEE KI KAY did well to finish second having made a serious mid-race error back at that venue 39 days ago and, youthful by hunter standards, with the prospect of more to come, he's of interest again. Jetaway Joey is another to note having landed 3 of his 4 starts between the Flag for his connections, with Polish and Haven't Time completing the shortlist.
