BOB 'N' YOU can carry his penalty to victory and confine Job One and Sparkling Montjeu to minor roles. All three won last time out but there could be more to come from Ian Williams' charge who is improving with experience and who clearly relished the step up in trip last time. The extra quarter of a mile that he's presented with here shouldn't pose any problems although a little rain may not go amiss. Job One showed a good turn of foot to win over this trip at Plumpton but he's up in the weights and this looks tougher but it's not easy to dismiss the claims of the durable Sparkling Montjeu who wasn't hard pressed to win at Fakenham. Shergill was a ready winner at the same venue but will do well to follow up here and more questions can be asked by Not For Diamonds who looked ready for this step back up in trip when staying on well at Plumpton. However, we do expect Bob 'N' You to have the answers.
