Verdict
HEY BOB has placed a couple of times since switching to Olly Murphy and is getting plenty of weight from modest rivals. Early Morning Dew was only beaten a neck at Uttoxeter at the start of the month but was due to run at that track yesterday. Sammeo is interesting making his handicap debut in cheekpieces following a wind operation with Amelia's Dance preferred to Genever Dragon and Sarceaux of the remainder.
