Formscan  - KATS BOB was a creditable third from a similarly low draw in the Silver Cup over C&D 10 days ago and the seven-year-old is an attractive proposition back here. Ziggy's Ariel, a length behind in fourth in that race, also merits close inspection, while previous C&D winner Raffles Angel boasts solid credentials too. Lesley's Boy is the pick of Richard Fahey's pair and he completes the shortlist.
