Improving chaser can build on last season's form

Cloudy Bob could spring a surprise3.30 Taunton

With more letters than numbers in his recent form figures, this nine-year-old is a risky proposition and isn't certain to run his race. However, that will be factored into his price and he showed he is still capable of useful form in a 3m handicap chase at Ascot last month.

Pat Murphy's gelding was beaten 11 lengths in fifth by winner Minella Daddy, who has since gone close off an 11lb higher mark at that course and was tried in the Grade 1 Kauto Star at Kempton four days ago.
