RICKY BOBBY took a sizeable step forward when making a winning handicap debut at Cork and while he has been hit with a 9 lb rise, there may well be more to come from this 6-y-o. He is preferred to fellow last-time-out winner Baltinglass Hill and Shantou Lucky, who is worth another chance despite misfiring at Clonmel last time. Belgoprince is also on the shortlist.
