    Verdict

    Small Bad Bob has been highly tried since winning at Fontwell in February and looks up against it again here. Unanswered Prayers got back to winning ways here last month but the penny has finally dropped with BOURBALI and Colin Tizzard’s five-year-old can complete his hat-trick at the main expense of the juvenile Aggagio, who has definitely improved since stepping up in distance.
