Race preview
JIGORO has better recent form that his principal rivals. Runner-up at Grade 2 level in January 2024, he has finished second in four of his last five starts and although reverting from chasing, he ran a solid race over hurdles at Cork in April. He likes this distance and his 5lb claimer lightens the weight burden. Hms Seahorse was himself Grade 1-placed in 2022 but while smart on his day, returned following 409 days off last December when he disappointed twice. He reappears following another break and needs to recapture some form. The Friday Man was useful in the past, but was well beaten on a recent reappearance.
