 Another bumper run at a crawl through the early stages and the first three came well clear in the straight.
It provided a decent opening for Bob Bob Bobbin, the first foal of the former high class hurdle/chaser Absolam's Lady, to open his account at the third time of asking, and he did so in good style. Having shown definite promise in Grade 2 bumpers (including one over the course and distance on his debut) on both his previous outings, he had only to be kept up to his work to confirm the promise and won with plenty in hand. He goes hurdling now and it is hard to predict how far he could go at this stage, but he is certainly smart, should stay further in time and looks to have a bright future.
