Plumpton Race 2

Weatherbys Cheltenham Festival Betting Guide Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Prize Money: $18,450

PACHACUTI (2) arrives in strong form following a 1.25L second behind a winner completing a double at Ffos Las last month. Trainer and jockey combination enjoying a good spell. Serious player tackling the longer trip. MADAJOVY (3) improved delivering a career best second of eleven effort over 3820m at Warwick. Wears first-time cheekpieces. Key player with the in-form Tristan Durrell back on board. GODOT (1) is two from seven at the course. Latest runner-up effort at Lingfield makes him an obvious threat. The two-time hurdle winning FERRET JEETER (6) placed making Ffos Las reappearance and is feared racing second-up.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up pulled up at Ascot on December 19 over 4300m. Second run from a spell raced on the pace then finished second of 13 runners at Lingfield on January 19 over 3900m, on slow going 4.5 len behind Luwdvig carrying 71kg at $19. Gets a chance to win. One of the main contenders.

Second-up today. Not raced for 45 days. Fresh up after nearly two years finished fifth in a small field at Fontwell Park on December 26 over 5200m, 34 len behind Kruger Park carrying 70.5kg at $10. Previously second-up won by 2.5 len this track on November 6 2023 over 5100m defeating I See You Well carrying 72kg at $6.50 in a steeplechase. Fitter for run. Consistent type with plenty of improvement in store.
