No. 8
Jappeloup
2.10 Plumpton
1pt win at 7-1 with Betfair and Hills

Still a maiden after 13 runs in Ireland for David Kelly, this seven-year-old has been running in more competitive races than he contests today and comes here having finished fifth of 18 at Roscommon last time.

Jappeloup was beaten only 13 lengths by winner Craig Star and should be considered better than the bare form as he was making good headway when putting in a sloppy leap at the last. That cost him valuable momentum and he would have finished closer without that mistake.
