P2P comment: The German-bred Jan Maat, a son of Electric Beat, a new sire to Irish point-to-points, ran with real promise on debut recently when finishing second in division two of the four-year-old geldings maiden at Bartlemy. Always up with the pace throughout, the grey gelding held every chance at the second-last, only to find fellow newcomer Hitman Fred, four-lengths too good at the line. Closely related to a number of multiple winners on the flat in his native Germany, he has the pedigree to drop back in trip under rules.
