Jet set for Diadem

JJ The Jet Plane is set to revert to six furlongs at Ascot next Sunday following his run at Newbury on Saturday.

The South African import, formerly trained by Mike de Kock, will go for the Group Two John Guest Diadem Stakes after taking third place behind Strike The Deal in the Dubai Duty Free World Trophy over the minimum trip.

“It was very encouraging seeing JJ run so well in the big sprint, and we will step him back up to six furlongs and have a crack at the Diadem Stakes at Ascot next weekend,” said trainer Richard Hannon.
