Continues to show plenty having joined this yard, front running and plugging on behind in-form winner in handicap over shorter here 3 weeks ago. Must be considered.

Modest 1m4f maiden on Flat for Mark Johnston. Sold cheaply but showed up better than expected on hurdling debut at Taunton. Not so good here 7 weeks on but worth remaining positive about.

Forecasts

Small Bad Bob (1/5), Trailboss (7/4), Nostalgica (7/2), O'Faolains Lad (20/1), Hazy Dream (50/1), Shantolie (125/1)

Verdict

Tricky to split the trio with form in this sphere, SMALL BAD BOB just getting the verdict over Trailboss and 4-y-o Nostalgica. He plugged on behind a thriving Paul Nicholls-trained winner over shorter here last time and this looks easier.

  1. SMALL BAD BOB (IRE)
  2. TRAILBOSS (IRE)
  3. NOSTALGICA
