HELLORBOSTON is a deserving top weight as he boasts the best form on offer and is highly consistent. He seems sure to run his race once again with the only proviso being that he would not wish the ground to dry out significantly as all his best form has come with cut. Rev Up Ruby is unproven at the trip while Tartan Tiger needs to put a really poor effort at Cartmel well and truly behind him after being sent off a well-backed market leader last time. Cobajayisland looks fairly handicapped on his first foray into such contests but the one who appeals as the each-way option is Cool Bob. Career statistics of 0-43 tell their own story and he's well over a stone out of the weights but, unlike many of his rivals, he's running consistently well in modest handicap company and has struck up a good relationship with his amateur pilot.
