Verdict
SOLDIER ON PARADE is the obvious one in this given he was second at Bangor on his hurdling debut and is from a yard that is in red-hot form. But at least a couple of his rivals have the potential to be a lot better over timber than they were on the level. One is Dorchester Dom and another is Prince Percy while Party Potential and Billy The Squid are from stables who do well here. Mick placed over 1m7f on the Flat but was inconsistent.
