Emma's tip — Skylight Hustle, Wednesday, 1.20

Skylight Hustle is a horse I have huge time for. He probably was fortunate I suppose to win at Christmas when Talk To Talk came down and I was a bit disappointed to see Jack Kennedy didn’t pick him today, but Danny Gilligan’s no poor backup and I’d say it wasn’t an easy decision for Jack.

He’s a horse with plenty of class. I’ve liked him all the way through his maiden hurdle runs. Gordon has talked about him as if he is a good horse. I think stepping up in trip will very much suit him as well.
