"Current Event and Get It On look the pair to concentrate on, the former marginally preferred given his unexposed profile..."
Timeform bring you a runner-by-runner guide to a fascinating novice chase over two miles and two furlongs at Fontwell on Thursday...
Current Event didn't go on as expected over hurdles, but outclassed inferior rivals over this C&D on chase debut in November. Obvious chance.
Get It On made the frame all 5 completed starts since making a winning debut over fences at Sedgefield (2½m) in September. No reason why he shouldn't give another decent account.
Aussie Man and Van is a Bob's Return half-brother to smart hurdler/chaser Sports Line (stays 2½m). Bred to make a chaser, but up against it on belated racecourse debut.
Edlomond found one too good on a few occasions in bumpers/novice hurdles, doing so again second try over fences at Stratford (17f) recently. Sure to win races in due course, but more required to lift this.
Galantos got off the mark over hurdles at Hereford (17f) in January, but chequered record in that sphere leaves something to be desired and well beaten only previous try over fences in 2008.
Musashi produced one or two respectable efforts since opening hurdling account in September 2010. Ticking over on the Flat in recent weeks, but not straightforward and stiff task now going chasing.
Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Current Event
2. Get It On
3. Edlomond
Timeform Verdict: Current Event and Get It On look the pair to concentrate on, the former marginally preferred given his unexposed profile.
