MARKY BOB found one too good at Cheltenham in one of these events last time but had Rash Move 10 lengths back in third. A repeat effort should be good enough to score in this company. The latter may finish closer this time while Shrewd Investment won a maiden hunter chase at Towcester three weeks ago and this doesn't look much tougher. Moon Over Miami was still beaten a distance despite finishing runner-up at Musselburgh on his latest start but makes most appeal of the remainder.
