Verdict
Mohi Rahrere has won twice here and it's a while since he's been able to race off a mark this low. But he's probably on a downward curve whereas HI BOB has only had two runs over the larger obstacles. He made all at Market Rasen last week and has the scope to defy a penalty. Fakenham third Lord Lir still has plenty to learn about jumping fences while Ray Diamond ran in snatches at Chepstow last time and is now blinkered. Phoenix Des Mottes may need his first start since June.
