15th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Just one win from his last 18 starts but that came by a wide margin over C&D (good to soft) in January and he ran another big race when fourth of 17 at Ascot (2m7f, good) last time; every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

Had to wait over two years for his second win but when it came at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago it was by a huge margin; back up 8lb and that's the furthest he's been, but now the possibility arises that he'll be interesting at this trip as well. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
His last four outings have seen him runner-up twice and pulled up twice; that makes him 2-14 over hurdles, with the two wins early in 2023 before he went handicapping; no problems with trip or ground but he does not appear the most reliable proposition on this switch to chasing. |

Only four ran at Catterick (3m1f, good) in November but he ran well behind an in-form rival; has each-way claims with Oliver Boyden again taking 10lb off his back. |

11st 10lb |
Rewarded a determined Sean Bowen ride when winning off reduced mark at Plumpton (3m1f, good) in the spring; still well handicapped on older form and unexposed at around 3m but others have more persuasive profiles. |

Only fourth at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) recently and she's untested at this trip; however, she kept on for a fair third at Hereford (2m3f, soft) two starts ago and this lightly raced 6yo is not ruled for her good yard. |

Verdict
Jilaijone made a good start for his new yard when scoring over C&D last month and he made a bad mistake two out when a creditable third under a penalty at Wetherby last time. He sets the standard on that form and is strongly respected, but preference is for another ex-French performer in JIKALA. She travelled well for a long way before finishing a clear second at Hereford on her recent stable debut and should benefit from that reappearance run.[David Moon]
