      Verdict

      Buy Back Bob has gone close on more than one occasion but has not raced since December and DETROIT BLUES is preferred. Jamie Snowden's charge ran the progressive Lochalsh close over course and distance last time and the latter has since gone in again. Twice a winner on the Flat, Proofreader is rated higher on the level than fellow hurdling newcomer Footstepsintherain, while Age Of Discovery is another making his debut over timber after three modest efforts in bumpers.
