HEY BOB has placed three times this season off higher marks and is 2lb lower than when last successful. That was more than two years ago but he is getting weight from all-bar one of his rivals in a very modest handicap. Follow Intello may do better now handicapping as he won twice on the Flat but Fort De L'ocean was beaten in a seller reverting to hurdles at Stratford and has changed stables. Karakoram is 1-40 while Sawpit Sienna may need this.
