Verdict

VANGO CAN GO made a bright start in bumpers last season and is a horse to follow now going jumping up in trip. He can make a successful reappearance, although Crystal Orchard's hurdling experience gives him an edge and he returns with his stable flying.

4	Progressive in bumpers last season, looking a good prospect. Won at Southwell in November before chasing home the promising Bass Hunter in listed contest at Ascot and the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham (found the emphasis too much on speed). Looks a class apart on that form now going hurdling. 1st Pick 4 Vango Can Go (Ire) Jockey: Harry Skelton Trainer: Dan Skelton J: Harry Skelton T: Dan Skelton	100	-	-	-	90%

1	Showed aptitude for hurdling when third in 17f Exeter novice when last seen in March, as in bumpers leaving the impression he'll be well suited by further. Certainly gets that on his return for a flying yard and the obvious danger to Vango Can Go. 2nd Pick 1 Crystal Orchard (Ire) Jockey: Brendan Powell Trainer: Joe Tizzard J: Brendan Powell T: Joe Tizzard	85	-	-	-	23%
