5-y-o who displayed promise all 3 starts in bumpers and positive start over hurdles when second in a Wetherby novice (19.7f) in October, inexperience getting the better of him late on. Big player with improvement expected.

Timeform
Promise when second only start in bumpers and similarly offered something to work on when fourth on return/hurdles bow at Warwick (19f, heavy) last month. That form looks solid and he's very much the type to improve.
|
Timeform
Expensive point winner who offered something to work on when fifth in maiden company at Aintree (20f, soft) in October. Should improve on that but might be more of a handicap type.

Forecasts

Bob Bob Ricard (4/5), Howaya Now (2/1), Theformismighty (5/2), Monbari (7/2)

Verdict

BOB BOB RICARD produced a promising first effort over hurdles before his lack of experience arguably caught him out when runner-up in novice company at Wetherby (19.7f) 7 weeks ago. Entitled to have derived a good deal from that, he gets the nod to go one place better. Howaya Now edges things for the forecast spot ahead of Monbari.
