FormscanBy Stuart Howden - Gordon Elliott's THE YELLOW CLAY is two from two over hurdles in Navan and his proven ability on testing ground will be a real asset to him. Although he would prefer a sounder surface, he powered clear on heavy ground to land a Grade 3 at this festival last year. Jetara is race-fit from the Flat and has a couple of placed efforts in Grade One company at Aintree and Punchestown to call upon. She has Paul Townend's assistance and is a big player. Elliott's Maxxum is only rated 3lb inferior to The Yellow Clay and is a winner at Grade 2 level over flights in Navan. He is more than capable of a big run off the front.
