Verdict

There might not be a great deal between Jack Frost and SLOWFOOT on collateral form but we're going to stick with Jim Best's once-raced seven-year-old, who made a good impression when beating Keys at Plumpton. A useful performer on the Flat in Germany, A P McCoy keeps the partnership intact. Jack Frost won over track and trip on his hurdling debut and was taking on decent opposition over further next time at Newbury. He's a nice long-term prospect while Blandfords Gunner is getting closer to a first victory. Sandygate is worth noting for future reference but Charlie Breekie might do better when tackling handicaps.
