Jersey Stakes Tips

2.30 Jersey Stakes (Class 1) (Group 3). 7 f


The Jersey Stakes replaced the second leg of the Triennial Stakes in 1919. Named after the 4th Earl of Jersey, who was the Master of the Buckhounds between 1782 and 1783, this contest is designed for 3 year olds who have yet to win a Group 1 or Group 2 race and often provides a stepping-stone to success at the highest level.


Codemaster 100/30 heads the market here following impressive displays at both Redcar and Newmarket recently but my recommendation is Havane Smoker 4/1 who came second in the French 2000gns last month after leading most of the way. Furthermore, 7fl is more his distance. Fury 4/1 faces a rise in grade although should be there or thereabouts.

Main bet: Havane Smoker. 4/1 each way. No: 5 on the racecard.
