Verdict

Plenty of course winning form on show with Kats Bob having won twice here since May though he's 7lb higher than his last success. He's 1lb better off with Surprise Picture for a head beating here last month so there should be little between the pair again. The latter had Jordan Electrics behind at Haydock last time but MARK'S CHOICE (NAP) would have to be the pick if repeating his latest effort at Ripon. Having his first start for Adrian Keatley that day after wind surgery, he was only beaten just over two lengths in the Class 2 Great St Wilfrid Handicap, form that would see him very difficult to beat.
