6/1
Bumper form showed some promise and he was looking as though he may well have gone close on his hurdles debut when falling. May well have needed the run when returning from a year off at Doncaster in March and looks as though he will play a part here with that run tucked away.

16/1
Sure to be of interest here given his sound bumper form finishing runner-up the last twice. Now goes over a slightly longer trip on his hurdling debut and worth watching in the market.

Bumper form was poor overall but did show a little more over hurdles on his initial start in this sphere. Would need to step up on that form though to have a chance here taking on some improving types on his second hurdles start.

His bumper form marked him out as quite useful although he failed to win in that discipline. Showed ability on his first hurdles start given that his jumping wasn't that great but with a little improvement he should get involved here.

100/1
Bumper and hurdles form has been fairly modest and he looks the sort for handicaps further down the line.
10
Horse silk
20/1
His two hurdles starts have shown more than his sole bumper outing and his second at Exeter in January reads fairly well. Didn't build on that last time out though and will need to show more here.

Seen just the once over hurdles so far (fair maiden on the Flat) when finishing down the field at Punchestown in October for his former yard. Now with a new yard and one that does well with new recruits and worth a market check with better expected.
13
Horse silk
2/1
Her bumper form has so far looked to be better than what she has shown over hurdles in a couple of outings. Failed to progress from her hurdles debut at Kempton Park last time out dropping in trip (well backed) and looks as though she could do with more of a test.

16:10 Fontwell - 12 April 2017 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A decent and interesting race of its type with a fair few looking to improve on what they have done so far and having the potential to do so. Old Harry Rocks and Peggies Venture faced one another last time out and it may well be the former who improves most for that experience over one who could probably do with a longer trip. Be Daring will also be expected to show a little more than his has so far and Rebel Collins is an interesting hurdling newcomer from the Mulholland yard that also run Parwich Lees. GIBSON PARK didn’t show much on his hurdling debut in Ireland but has now joined a top yard and the Skelton team have a good record of improving this sort.
