O'Neill Waits On Black Jack Target

Jonjo O'Neill is still undecided on the Cheltenham Festival target for his unbeaten novice hurdler Black Jack Ketchum.

The seven-year-old has won over the Royal and SunAlliance Hurdle trip of two miles and five furlongs and also over three miles, the distance of the Brit Insurance Hurdle.

He had been due to take on SunAlliance Hurdle favourite Denman at Bangor recently but missed the engagement.

'We will leave him in both races until the latest possible moment,' said the Gloucestershire handler. 'There is no reason why we should rule out either race at this stage.

'He is very well and he goes very well fresh so it is not a big problem that he missed his run at Bangor the other week.'
