Rith Bob is 3lb better off with COPSEHILL GIRL than when beaten six lengths over a shorter trip at Ffos Las last month but that shouldn't be enough for the top weight to turn the tables on Ian Williams' mare, who probably has scope for further improvement. Bounds And Leaps has only found one too good on a couple of occasions at Towcester this season and enters the argument while Inkberrow Rose was third off this mark over 3m1f at Taunton last month. Overnight Fame did finish a long way in front of the bottom weight at Towcester two runs ago, however, and can confirm the form despite a big turnaround in the weights.
