J DAY AT ASCOT AS THE PLANE GOES FOR GLORY

J J The Jet Plane (pictured with his connections), one of the most exciting sprinters to emerge out of South Africa, will contest the Golden Jubilee Stakes Group 1 at Ascot on Saturday and he goes off as the first South Africa bred or raced horse to jump as ante post favourite for a Royal Ascot event.

The former Lucky Houdalakis galloper placed in the care of Mike De Kock for his international campaign goes into the event after an emphatic latest win in the Listed Up Up and Away Stakes at Windsor winning by 4 lengths in a field packed with multiple hard knocking English winners.

A late scratching is the Australia champion Takeover Target with Tuesday's King's Stand winner, Scenic Blast not contesting the event

The latest betting is as follows

6 (9) J J The Jet Plane 3/1
10 (8) Sacred Kingdom 11/4
4 (5) Ialysos 7/1
