Verdict

BOBHOPEORNOHOPE boasts a positive profile over fences, successful over C&D back in February and hitting the frame both starts since, including when third back from 8 months off at Ascot 32 days ago. He shades the vote to defy top weight returned to this venue, with Back On The Lash, Frenchy Du Large and Not Available others to consider.
