Temperament isn't all it could be but he's pretty talented on his day and landed 5f listed event at Southwell in February. Backed it up with a fair third of 11 in Palace House Stakes at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) 35 days ago so needs considering back in handicap company.

Had a fine 2024, recording a first success at listed level when making all in the Beverley Bullet (5f) in August. Showed his usual bright speed when fifth of 8 in 5f Haydock listed event a week ago so last year's runner-up must enter calculations.

Took this 12 months ago but he failed to build on a good reappearance Pontefract second when tenth of 12 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Still merits consideration back here though.

Bagged this prize in 2023 but he failed to beat a rival in 17-runner handicap at York (5f, good) 23 days ago. Hampered at the start there however so it would come as no surprise to see him get back on track here.

Likeable sprinter who gained a deserved success at York's Ebor meeting in 2024. In fine form again this term and a close third of 13 in 5f York handicap last time. Well in the mix once more.

Progressive 5f winner who shaped very well when fifth of 12 in handicap at Chester (5f, good to soft) 30 days ago, caught further back than ideal before running on late. Expected to be bang there off an unchanged mark.

Forecasts

Jer Batt (7/2), Spartan Arrow (6/1), Jm Jungle (7/1), Vintage Clarets (7/1), Democracy Dilemma (8/1), Existent (10/1), Fair Wind (12/1), Desert Cop (16/1), Clarendon House (18/1), Blind Beggar (20/1), Tees Spirit (22/1), Michaela's Boy (25/1), Dream Composer (25/1), The Bell Conductor (28/1), Rhythm N Hooves (28/1), Nogo's Dream (33/1), Marching Mac (40/1), Ziggy's Missile (40/1), One Night Stand (50/1)

Verdict

JER BATT really caught the eye when a running-on fifth at Chester last time and reunited with Oisin Murphy could prove the answer to this wide open sprint. The likeable JM Jungle arrives at the top of his game and heads the list of dangers, while Democracy Dilemma could prove best of the Robert Cowell-trained quintet and, along with former winners Dream Composer and Tees Spirit and the handily-weighted Vintage Clarets, also needs factoring into this ultra competitive renewal of the Dash.
