Albert Bartlett hero runs at Worcester

Johnny’s Jury was a surprise winner of the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at last season’s Cheltenham Festival and he was also a respectable third at Aintree the following month. This strong staying type was delivered with a very effective late challenge to win at Cheltenham.

There’s plenty to look forward to this season and fences could encourage more improvement. The son of Jukebox Jury will have high expectations placed on him now and connections will be hoping that he develops into a Brown Advisory candidate this term.

Harry Cobden heads to Cork

Cornelienne was unfortunate to bump into two smart mares on both starts over hurdles last term and she looks like the one to beat here on that evidence. Only Bambino Fever was too good for her at Fairyhouse on her last hurdles start and she’s well set to go one better.

Love Me Tender appeared to have a fair amount of potential as a novice hurdler but wasn’t quite able to reach the top level in graded company. Willie Mullins’ gelding was an easy winner at Listowel when last seen and there’s a good chance he can follow up.

Banter At The Bar remains lightly raced over fences and the six-year-old won nicely at Punchestown in January. Last seen finishing second at Limerick back in March, it’s likely that the best is yet to come from him and perhaps the marathon trip can facilitate some improvement.
