Jazl

9st 3lb

J: Jack Mitchell

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Looked smart when making short work of his rivals in first two starts as a 3yo in a Windsor maiden and on handicap debut at Leicester (both 6f on good to firm); a 10lb rise for the latter didn't look to be overdoing it but he was badly out of sorts when last of 27 in the big 5f handicap at Royal Ascot since (13-2); trust suspended for now.

All runs over 6f on good to firm ground; beaten favourite in both starts as a 2yo, after which he was gelded; he has returned an improved performer in 2026, easily winning a Windsor maiden before producing a dominant display in a Leicester handicap 25 days ago; strong at the finish despite racing freely in the early stages on that latest occasion and he looks plenty quick enough for 5f; a 10lb hike is no gift but the Leicester form looks strong and he could well be a Group horse in the making; stable won this last year; lots to like.
