Blue Jack Runs At Haydock

Blue Jack, owned by Manchester United's Michael Owen and Betfair co-founder Andrew Black, is on course for this weekend's betfred.com Temple Stakes at Haydock.

He booked his place when finishing a fine third to Equiano and Borderlescott in the Palace House Stakes at Newmarket three weeks ago.

"He was a horse we thought would be just a Saturday handicapper but he has now turned out to be a Group horse," said trainer Tom Dascombe.

"As long as we get a central draw and he can just pop out and stay close from the start, we will have a chance.

"If Blue Jack can win, it will certainly be the biggest win Michael has had since I have been at this yard."
