Fontwell Tips
4:30 Richard Johnston and Philip Hobbs in fine form of late, and both had a good record at this course over the last 5 seasons, though not as impressive as Nicky Henderson (38% SR from 34 runners). SANDYGATE shaped well on hurdles debut, and has every chance here, and should definitely improve on his 4th at Ludlow, up in trip to 2m4f.
SANDYGATE 7/2
Danger; Towering (11/2) - Hurdles debut. Trainer Nicky Henderson has a great record at this course over recent seasons, and in 2014-15 season, Henderson boasted an impressive 54% strike-rate in Maidens (28 wins from 52) - 51% in Maiden Hurdles (21 wins from 41). When teamed with McGrath in 14-15 they won 7 hurdles from 21 (31% SR).
5:05 BERTIE'S DESIRE returns after 174 days off the track. Ran well in 2014 with 2 wins and 3 second place finishes from his 5 runs. Step up to 2m6f for first time could well be the answer for Sherwood and Aspell partnership, which saw a 27% strike-rate in chases (2014-15) - 15 wins from 56.
BERTIE'S DESIRE 7/2
