Verdict

NEON WOLF (NAP) created a distinctly favourable impression when scoring on his bumper debut at Uttoxeter in December. He appears to be highly-rated by the classy Fry operation and this looks a good starting point over hurdles for the son of Vinnie Roe. Touch Kick still showed some ability despite being beaten over 30 lengths into fourth spot at Chepstow on his hurdling debut and the champion trainer can be guaranteed to get the best out of the Presenting gelding. Kayf Adventure hasn't been seen since landing a heavy ground bumper back in the early spring of 2015 for the Hobbs team when looking pretty useful. The market should signpost his readiness for action after such a lengthy absence. The likes of Test Pilot and Rescued Glory may have more to offer but Rebel Beat could only manage fifth at Taunton on Friday.
