Antigua Fire has a shot at redemption in next Saturday’s Ladbrokes Golden Jacket Final after landing the fastest of the three semi finals on Saturday morning.
The runner-up in 2019 for Plunket Matthews under his former name of Towcester Story, the 35 kilo black was the first of the three winning semi final favourites and has drawn his favourite striped jacket for the £17,500 decider.
Antigua Fire is now the 7-4 favourite followed by 5-2 Roxholme Poppy, 7-2 Skilful Sandie, 10-1 Sheldan, 12-1 Avastorm, 14-1 Aayamza Express.
